Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The concept of a healthy community or city is based on the belief that the health of the commu-nity is largely influenced by the environment in which people live and that health problems have multiple causes: social, economic, political, environmental, and behavioral. Creation of a coalition engages residents in addressing the problem, which is impacted by multiple factors. The initial activities of this initiative focused on the problems of diverse populations. Reduction of the amount of pollutants and provision of fire and police protection do not address problems of di-verse populations. Although crime and violence in a community may be decreased, it is not pos-sible to eliminate it.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Community participation can influence the continuance of the Healthy Communities and Cities movement. Time, federal involvement, and technology are not as major of factor to continuation as is participation by the community.
