Health Promotion and Outreach
The Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) provides health promotion and outreach support to government agencies and organizations seeking to provide health information to targeted populations. ORISE develops culturally-sensitive programs and audience-appropriate materials for those who require information on specific medical topics, health disparities and environmental health issues.
ORISE’s specific health promotion and outreach capabilities include:
ORISE helps agencies address public health issues by engaging stakeholders, members of the academic community and industry experts through collaborative partnerships.
Experienced in educating populations facing health disparities, ORISE works with government agencies and organizations to develop programs that promote health literacy.
ORISE develops skills and strengthens the infrastructure necessary for government agencies and organizations to effectively respond to public health challenges and emergencies.
Through community partnerships and education, ORISE helps increase quality of life by addressing health issues that disproportionately impact minorities and underserved populations.
