The HEAL:BCC Curriculum is designed to help adults with limited literacy skills understand and navigate the health care system. The curriculum includes a series of lessons divided into four units. The final unit includes a selection of class projects that invite students to share what they have learned with others.

As a whole, the curriculum guides students towards a deeper understanding of health in general, and breast and cervical cancer early detection and screening specifically. In addition, learners gain the skills and confidence they need to manage the health care system and advocate for themselves and others.
