Part 2: Sample email message

Dear [NAME],

[ADJUST WORDING BASED ON RECIPIENT] I recently became an ambassador for the federally funded Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center (MSKTC: http://msktc.org/), which offers free, research-based resources for people living with TBI and their families. MSKTC covers close to 30 rehabilitation topics (http://msktc.org/tbi). Tailored to the diverse learning styles of individuals with TBI and their families, these resources are in multiple formats (video, audio, and print) including factsheets, infocomics (information presented in a comic-styled storyboard format), videos, podcasts, narrated slideshows, and quick reviews. MSKTC factsheets and infocomics are available in both English and Spanish. MSKTC is funded by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, Administration for Community Living, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. I am including links to these resources below. Please feel free to share with others who may benefit from them.
