The Women's Health Network for Minority Consumer Health Outreach (WHN) facilitates access to culturally and linguistically appropriate consumer health information. WHN is a partnership of the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Health System, the VCU Libraries Tompkins-McCaw Library for the Health Sciences, VCU School of Nursing, REACH (consortium of health providers), and the Virginia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. Computers were placed in five community locations where staff were trained to search for and evaluate health Web sites and use appropriate resources (e.g., MedlinePlus). Products included a Web site, health education lectures, and promotional exhibits at various community events. A community group regularly advises program directors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
