Health Literacy Solutions Center

Welcome!
IHA's Health Literacy Solution Center is Hosted by the Institute for Healthcare Advancement

At the heart of IHA’s mission lies a deep commitment to advancing health literacy as a cornerstone for achieving health equity. We believe that by empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills to make informed health decisions, we can bridge gaps in healthcare access, outcomes, and opportunities. As part of our ongoing efforts to fulfill this mission, we are excited to announce a strategic reorganization that focuses on expanding our impact through two dedicated platforms, each with a unique role in driving health literacy forward.

Through this reorganization, we are strengthening our capacity to support both professionals and organizations in their shared goal of making health literacy a reality for all. Together, we can create a future where everyone has the knowledge and confidence to take charge of their health, leading to healthier, more equitable communities.
