HEALTH LITERACY CLASS CONTINUES

The Literacy Center is proud to present our new Health Literacy class.   Featuring a curriculum designed solely for The Literacy Center's students, the course will run for six weeks will be offered throughout the program year. 

Just some of the topics students will learn include: 

  • How to talk to doctors and ask the right questions
  • Finding the right doctor for you and your family
  • Practice reading medication labels and filling out medical forms
  • Making good decisions for your health and your children's
  • The different specialties of doctors
  • Health vocabulary

The Health Literacy mini-class is offered to enrolled students in addition to their regular classes.  Solid attendance is required. 

MINI-CLASSES

Mini-classes are meant to be taken by enrolled students to supplement their traditional studies.  Mini-classes are usually offered over six-week periods at various times throughout the program year.  They offer our students specific instruction on one particular topic.  Mini-classes improve skills and knowledge to help students reach their goals. 

Look for Health Literacy and Computer classes to be added soon!

 

Students MUST call the Literacy Center at 610.435.0680 to register for all Literacy Center classes.
