Hep C Challenge
http://www.hepcchallenge.org/
HCCAP (Hepatitis C Caring Ambassadors Program) The book, below, is an excellent resource. The graphics are a little challenging, as the links to the chapters are all put together like a paragraph at the bottom of the page and in quite small print. It is, however, worth the effort.
