USERS OF HEPPROGRAMS.ORG, PLEASE GIVE US YOUR INPUT!
As most of our readers know, IAC, with dedicated funding from the Division of
Viral Hepatitis at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has
developed the website
http://www.hepprograms.org in order to showcase programs across the U.S.
that work to prevent hepatitis A, B, or C in people who are at risk for
infection.
The website is a terrific source of detailed information describing more than 80
successful hepatitis prevention programs and how they operate. The site also
features general information on hepatitis B and hepatitis A vaccination, special
topics related to viral hepatitis, and links to other organizations and
resources.
We are now conducting an online survey of visitors to hepprograms.org in order
to determine how it is used and how it can serve you better.
Please help us out by filling in the survey questions at
http://www.hepprograms.org/surveyhepv/?wherefrom=hepx
If you know of other users of hepprograms.org, we would greatly appreciate it if
you would forward this message to them, asking that they consider taking the
survey.
