Dear Fellow Nurse Researchers:

I am delighted to share with you the announcement for the 5th Annual Health Literacy Conference to be held in October in Washington D.C. (see attachment).  If you have not attended this event in the past and you have an interest in health literacy, you will find this conference to be outstanding!  I have attended for several years and come away each year with new ideas and increased knowledge not only on research but also on evidenced based successful initiatives to improve health literacy for my patient population.  The level of research presented at this conference on the topic is second to none!  Please pass this announcement on to any and all nurse researchers interested in this topic!
