Identify the health promotion programs that you would want to investigate and get them approved by your instructor.

Address the following questions:

  1. Identify the risk factors associated with the selected health promotion programs.

  3. What are the risk factors that you want to focus on in order to achieve the objective of the health promotion program?
  4. What intervention would you recommend to be most appropriate to reduce exposure to these risk factors? You can choose at what level of intervention you want to implement each program (primary, secondary, tertiary health intervention).
  5. What will be the process by which this intervention will achieve the goal of the program?
  6. What will be the anticipated outcome of this intervention?
