Today, more than ever, it is hard to find credible health and science information. This is especially true given the many conflicting sources we are bombarded with at every turn.
The Coalition for Trust in Health & Science believes access to reliable, evidence-based information is necessary for all people so that they can make personally appropriate health decisions.
On this page you’ll find trusted resources from our member organizations (and other credible sources) to help you make informed health decisions. We also provide a helpful checklist for reviewing health information online.
