Many organizations and associations maintain email discussion groups called “listservs” to share information throughout the community. Check an organization’s web site to find links to particular listservs.

To search for listservs in diverse areas of health and adult literacy across the web, search the Internet using key terms such as “listserv”, “Canada”, and/or “health” and “literacy”.

Community-Campus Partnerships for Health (CCPH) has an electronic discussion group and a biweekly online newsletter. Members also have access to a research database.
