Consider the known health concerns for your community (city or county) to identify a target audience to educate about a health promotion or primary prevention topic that will prevent the underlying cause of the health concern from contributing to illness or death, in the first place. For example: the Promotion of Immunizations can reduce, eliminate, or maintain elimination of cases of vaccine-preventable diseases in children. Another example: the Prevention of Obesity can reduce one’s risk factors for development of diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease in the adult population.
