Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Community health education with the community as client is based on practical, relevant, and scientifically sound methods and widely accessible technology. An effective program relates economic, political, and epidemiological factors to internal behavioral and communication factors. Thus the program activities are viewed within a sociopolitical structure especially within the local environmental settings.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Although such activities are educational, collaborative, and ideally do address problems in some order by priority, building a community's capacity to address future problems is called developing community competence.
