This session will feature a health literacy learning collaborative (HLLC) developed through an Office of Minority Health-funded grant to advance organizational health literacy (HL)—Advancing Health Literacy Franklin County. We will: describe how the HLLC was conceived, designed, implemented, and assessed, and share key resources, tools, and approaches used to recruit, train, and evolve into an all-teach-all learn format wherein each team created an organizational or focused HL Plan and advanced as a health literate health organization. Participants will learn how this can be adapted on a small or large scale to address equity, quality, safety, and patient/client centered care.
