Hi, All.

You are receiving this email because you have agreed to distribute

informational materials for farmworkers. I have attached the latest versions of

various urls for materials that might be helpful to farmworkers and their

families, educators or childcare providers, and outreach workers in reducing their

risk for contracting the novel H1N1 flu. Please feel free to contact the

Community Outreach and Education Team Desk by email or phone (below) if you

have difficulty accessing a document.

We are working on plain language versions of these materials, but for the

time-being we understand that you may need to adapt the wording for your

audience. As new materials are available, I will forward them to you. Please

feel free to forward all materials to your networks. You may also go to http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/whatsnew.htm

to access the latest documents put onto the website. If other organizations

want to be added to this group, please ask them to send an email to the CHET

Desk requesting to be added to this list.

I very much appreciate your patience and willingness to distribute these

items.

Sincerely,

Kathi
