If you need educational videos to teach students about environmental health topics, or maybe an overview of how family caregivers can use MedlinePlus, you can find these videos and more through the Outreach and Services playlist on the NLM YouTube channel. Check out the following examples:

• K-12 Students and Educators: Watch short educational animations about environmental health topics, like What in the World is Arsenic? Arsenic in our Food or Something in the Air: Particulate Matter and Your Health. Also available is a video teaching students how to navigate genetics education resources from NLM.
• Family Caregivers:: Share this tutorial video series to teach family caregivers how to find reliable health information on MedlinePlus.
• Native American Communities: Listen to true stories about health experiences from individuals in Native American communities, such as The Wolf, a video story about a Native American man’s battle with and coming to terms with his prostate cancer, or Ogeebiccoon Roots, a reflection about the roots of plants and how they relate to the roots of community.
• HIV/AIDS Organizations: Watch a demo reel of NLM efforts to support HIV/AIDS information outreach. Modern technological advances proposed by 8 awardees from the 2016 HIV/AIDS Community Information Outreach Program (ACIOP) are showcased in this video.
