SEQUENTIAL COMPONENTS
IMPLEMENTATION
The effort to change the behaviors and conditions associated with each local condition on a logic model requires the planning and implementation of multiple strategies. This chapter addresses three key components required to design and select strategies:
Environmental Strategies
Environmental strategies incorporate prevention efforts aimed at changing or influencing community conditions, standards, institutions, structures, systems and policies. Coalitions should select strategies that lead to long-term outcomes.
Evidence-based Strategies
Programs or policies that have been evaluated and demonstrated to be effective in preventing health problems based upon the best-available research evidence, rather than upon personal belief or anecdotal evidence.
Comprehensive Strategies
A combination of strategies that when implemented over time will achieve a desired outcome. Comprehensive strategies include a combination of individual- and environmental-focused strategies.
