I want to get some notes on "What are the types of Community Health support programs?" or "what are the varieties of community health support programs?"
Hello,
Thank you for contacting The Community Tool Box. Your question is quite broad, and I'm afraid the answer is probably just as broad. The structure and functions of community health programs is very broad. They may be general or targeting specific health problems. For example, there may be programs targeting obesity that would range from obesity prevention via education, advocacy, or another means. The program might be targeting general good health and target a specific population, such as youth or the elderly. While some programs focus on education and awareness, others engage in direct intervention via home visiting or specialized groups.
Such programs can be "typed" by whether they are primary, secondary or tertiary prevention programs; the form the intervention takes; or by specific content or a health issue. So, as you can see, there really is no simple answer to this question. You might want to browse through the Community Tool Box pages and look at the examples that are provided. Many are community health programs, and can give you some idea of the range. I am sorry I could not be more helpful.
