process in which an intervention is planned to help meet the needs of a specific group of people.
Program Planning
complementing process to Community Organization (wherein the priority population/community is studied and needs assessment is performed).
Pre – planning
PROCESS OF CREATING A RATIONALE
STEP 1 Identify appropriate background information
STEP 2: Titling the rationale
STEP 3: Writing the content of the rationale
STEP 4: Listing the references used to create the rationale.
Approach this step like how you are going to make a review of related literature in a research paper.
Identify appropriate background information
Once planners have identified and are familiar with the sources of information and data that can be used to “sell” program development, they can now begin with giving a title to the rationale.
STEP 2: Titling the rationale
This part should begin with a concise explanation of the issue that needs to be addressed, why it is a problem and why it should be dealt with.
STEP 3: Writing the content of the rationale
Proper listing of references should be remembered
Listing the references used to create the rationale
describes the general focus or purpose of the program.
MISSION STATEMENT
brief description of where the program will be in the future;
VISION STATEMENT
future events toward which a committed endeavor is directed.
GOALS
steps taken in pursuit of a goal and are more precise than goals.
OBJECTIVES
the daily tasks, activities, and work plans that lead to the accomplishment of all other level objectives.
Process Objectives
they describe the observable effects of a program and they form the groundwork for impact evaluation
Impact Objectives
This hierarchy indicates that if those in the priority population are going to adopt and maintain a health-enhancing behavior
Learning objectives

Behavioral objectives
are the ultimate objectives of a program and are aimed at changes in health status, social benefits, risk factors or quality of life.
Outcome objectives
What are the elements of a well-written objective?
statement focusing on the action
describing a time period or answering the question “when”.
how much change will occur.
priority population or who will change.
Eight questions should be considered by planners when creating health promotion interventions:
What needs to change and where is the change needed?
At what level of prevention will the program be aimed?
At what level/s of influence will be the intervention be focused?
What types of intervention strategies are known to be effective?
Is the intervention an appropriate fit for the priority population?
Are the necessary resources available to implement the intervention selected?
Would it be better to use an intervention that consists of single strategy or one that
is made up of multiple strategies?
A set of criteria could be followed to check the feasibility and/or appropriateness of health promotion programs.
address one or more risk factors
reflect a consideration of the special characteristics, need and preferences of its target group/s
reduce a target risk factor
identify and implement interventions
health promotion program should be organized, planned and implemented
act of converting planning goals and objectives into action
Program Implementation
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION PHASES
IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE TASKS TO BE COMPLETED
ESTABLISHING A SYSTEM OF MANAGEMENT
PUTTING THE PLANS INTO ACTION
ENDING OR SUSTAINING A PROGRAM
What are the resources needed and different concerns associated with the actual implementation?
IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE TASKS TO BE COMPLETED
This includes human, financial and technical resources management that are both effective and efficient.
ESTABLISHING A SYSTEM OF MANAGEMENT
Involves pilot testing the program, phasing in and total implementation
PUTTING THE PLANS INTO ACTION
