This book articulates a clear four-phase framework for planning, creating, implementing, and evaluating multilevel community health promotion interventions that target individual, physical, and social environments. Each phase is described in thorough detail and accompanied by in-depth examples so that students and professionals understand how to apply the framework from beginning to end. Additional guidelines review how to adapt existing interventions to new contexts. Important underlying theoretical material, including theories of behavior change, are also reviewed.
