Healthy People 2030 says,
As public health professionals and service providers, we have a responsibility to recognize the importance of health literacy when conducting work within our community. We live in an era of information overload, and consequently also live in an era of misinformation overload. It is our responsibility to equitably inform our community members. Because our community faces barriers to accessing, understanding, and using health information, health literacy should be at the forefront of all Public Health and Healthcare endeavors, individually and organizationally.
