A variety of criteria were considered when selecting these materials. We included only materials that are free or low-cost, and available by mail or on the Web. Background materials had to address issues of culture and health, and health education materials had to be written in simple English or available in languages other than English. We also looked for guides addressing issues of culture or health in an adult education classroom. There are also bibliographies and resource guides that you can use to further your own search.
Selected videos are ones that bring health messages to multicultural audiences.
We looked for locally produced materials that were written for and by specific cultural communities.
