Virtual Event - Health Information Resources

October is Health Literacy Month

To help you develop your "health literacy," we'll provide an overview of MCPL's core Health Information Resources from our website, as well as touch on others we have linked from our site.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, Title V, defines health literacy as the degree to which an individual has the capacity to obtain, communicate, process, and understand basic health information and services to make appropriate health decisions.(From the website of the Centers for Disease Control)
