Description:As communities seek ways to become healthier places, they face an array of choices on how to intervene—choices that can seem daunting. Which interventions are possible? Which are likely to have the greatest impact and make a real and lasting difference by reaching more people with the greatest intensity?
This guide is intended for community health planning coalitions, agencies, and health departments working together to improve community health—particularly, but not exclusively, those funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Preventions (CDC). It is designed to guide coalitions and groups involved in planning community health improvement efforts toward high-impact interventions. Specifically, this guide will help coalitions or other planning groups
• Identify high-impact interventions.
• Take concrete steps to ensure the interventions selected are evidence-based.
• Apply the “Twin Approach” (which couples population-wide interventions with more targeted interventions to advance health equity) in the design, selection, and implementation of interventions.
• Use logic models to select and develop the most effective interventions for a particular community, either on their own or within a broader strategic planning effort.
This document was developed in June 2015 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and ICF International with funding support under contract 200-2011- F-42017.
