Population Health FrameworkAbstract
The Guide for Community Action is a handbook for anyone who wants to improve health across a population, whether locally, in a broader region or state, or even nationally. The Guide’s purpose is to support individuals and groups working together at all levels — local, state and national — to successfully promote and improve population health over time. It contains brief summaries of 10 useful elements important to consider during efforts to work with others, along with actions to take and examples of practical resources, to build a coalition that can improve population health.
