Seeking Organizations Striving to be Health Literate
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is seeking nominations of health care organizations that are actively engaged in implementing interventions to enhance: 1) patient understanding of health information, 2) patient navigation of the physical environment and of the health care system, and/or 3) patient engagement and self-management.

Please feel free to nominate your own organization.
