Medication Label Summit held on April 3 will focus on challenges to reading medication labels, including sessions on Wisconsin Health Literacy's grant project from the Healthier Wisconsin Partnership Program relating directly to this topic. This summit is an added feature to this year's Wisconsin Health Literacy Summit and is held one day prior to the Summit.
