h t l a e H f o h t n o M e h T : r e b o t c O The month of October is all about Health. It's Health Literacy, Breast Cancer, Down Syndrome, & Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and holds National Child Health Day and World Mental Health Day. October is a time of international observance when hospitals, health centers, literacy programs, libraries, social service agencies, businesses, professional associations, government agencies, consumer alliances, and many other groups can work collaboratively to integrate and expand the mission of health literacy. This month, we will work together to shift from health literacy awareness to health literacy action by building a world where all individuals have access to quality health outcomes.
