Register for HealthCampNYC

Registration is open for HealthCampNYC: Using Collective Knowledge to Improve Health Literacy and Community Health on Friday, May 14.

HealthCampNYC is a regional health unconference for librarians, literacy professionals, public health professionals, medical professionals, community-based organizations and people interested in sharing with and learning from each other.

Participants at HealthCampNYC will be expected to share their work, skills and knowledge as active participants. In the rich tradition of unconferences, attendees will determine and manage program topics and sessions. Sessions may include (but are not limited to): how-to workshops, debates, or problem-solving sessions. This collaborative environment presents unique opportunities for learning, sharing, and relationship-building.

HealthCampNYC is hosted by Brooklyn Public Library, with support from the Brooklyn Early Childhood Direction Center, The Health Education and Literacy for Parents (HELP) Project, Kingsborough Community College/CUNY's Launchpad to Careers in Public Health, New York Academy of Medicine Library and the Public Health Association of New York City (PHANYC). This project has been funded in whole or in part with Federal funds from the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. NO1-LM-6-3501 with New York University.
