Description:When you’re creating educational materials about public health, the most important thing you can do is to write clearly. This helps make sure readers can understand your main message — and any related action steps you’re asking them to take.
Keep in mind that clear writing is important for everyone — not just audiences that are likely to have limited literacy skills. The fact is that even highly literate readers may struggle to understand complex information if they’re stressed or in a hurry. That’s why the need for clear communication is universal — and it’s your job as a public health professional to make sure you do your part.
This guide has resources to help you write clear public health materials at every stage of development — from tips for thinking through your material’s strategy before you start to write all the way through the final review process. Use the tip sheets, checklists, and worksheets to create clear, effective materials that everyone can understand and use.
And for more tips and tools on clear writing, be sure to check out the rest of the resources on the NCEH/ATSDR Clear Writing Hub.
