Plain language consulting

Before KK Clear, I got hooked on plain language while working at March of Dimes, a national nonprofit organization that fights for the health of moms and babies. For 20+ years we used plain language and clear communication strategies to create health education messaging and content to help women have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies. See samples of this work:
Health action sheets
These 1-pagers feature key health messages and are easily downloaded and printed.
Past Work
Infographics
Infographics are plain language at its finest. They condense complex health information into short
key messages that are clear and actionable.
Print pieces
For those who like a printed piece....they're still here! Even in today's digital world, there's a place for main messages in print.
Videos
Short videos offer content in an engaging format.
