The Clear Communication resource pages are designed to support science and public health communicators in the creation and dissemination of health information. The goal of Clear Communication is to cultivate a growing health literacy movement by increasing information sharing of NIH educational products and best practices.

The NIH Office of the Director’s (OD) Office of Communications and Public Liaison (OCPL), and the 27 associated NIH public affairs offices, work to connect the public with NIH research. OD’s OCPL serves as liaison to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on issues related to health literacy, plain language, and language access.

The following pages are available as tools to assist in the important work of effective science and public health communication:
