For use with staff:

• Share in a meeting
• Print and use as a reference when talking with clients
• Share in your agency’s email newsletter or website
• Share broadly with community members and partner organizations

For use with clients:

• Incorporate this information into handouts, brochures, and clinic posters
• Post the information on your agency’s website with other materials

Note: Title X grantees and subrecipient agencies are required to have a review and approval process, by an Advisory Committee, for all informational and educational (I&E) materials developed or made available under the project, prior to their distribution. The RHNTC I&E Materials Review Toolkit has resources to ensure compliance with this Title X expectation.
