Health promotion models include various physical, psychological, social, environmental and economic factors. Review the health promotion models discussed in the lecture and reading. See what other models are available online.

Over the next few weeks you will be working on a summative community health promotion evaluation. For this project you will assess the needs of a particular community and design a community program for health promotion. You will also develop implementation strategies and intervention methods to address these community needs. Finally you will evaluate the program planning process and revise your project as needed.

This week you will design your project with your chosen theory or model in mind. Although your project presentation will not be due until week 7 you will be building up to that final presentation over the next weeks.

I would like for you to focus on the needs of your community. Write a summary of health needs to identify a population or group in need of health promotion and education. What is the need? Where is there a need? What epidemiologic data have you found on this population? What is the socioeconomically culture of your particular population that you have selected?

Write a 1-2 page summary of your community and population following APA guidelines.

Be creative! You can design a flow chart with 1-2 paragraphs explaining your model.
