Welcome to The North Carolina Health Literacy Council website.

The NCHLC is dedicated to promoting health literacy through a program of awareness, professional education, collaboration and best practice dissemination. We believe health literacy is one of our state's top priorities to meet the difficult goal of improving North Carolina's health.

You're an important part of the solution! The NCHLC was founded with the principles of community collaboration in mind. We believe the best solutions to community challenges are found by combining known best practices with the creative passion of community advocates. Take a look around, let us know what you think, and join us in developing a health literacy network for North Carolina!
