Healthy Moments

Voicing "Healthy Moments" to the African American Community

The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) asked IQ Solutions to join in an important health education initiative—“Healthy Moments.” Many of the diseases researched by NIDDK are of particular importance to the African American community, and “Healthy Moments” provides a landscape where the Institute can reach this audience with actionable prevention and treatment knowledge.

After developing the Drugs + HIV > Learn the Link public service campaign for the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), our challenge was to convey the message to the young Hispanic community effectively.
