Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Involving the neighboring community in health promotion programs can benefit school-aged children and their families, as well as members of the surrounding community. Health promotion strategies involving the community may include collaboration with local law enforcement to conduct a gun safety awareness program, including handgun issues.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
An example of a health promotion strategy involving the community is to involve school-aged children in a community parade celebrating being drug free. Nutrition awareness can occur if a school meal program is not healthy; form an ad hoc committee to study the problem. The committee should consist of students, parents, the public health/school nurse, cafeteria personnel, representatives of the faculty and administration, and a dietitian. It can include conducting a survey to assess student opinion and food preferences and doing a plate waste study to determine what children are actually eating. A health promotion strategy that can be used with groups such as teachers or staff in a school setting is stuffing payroll envelopes with health promotion material.
