WEEK 4 ASSIGNMENT: From Problem to Plan: Designing a Mini Health Promotion Intervention

You will design a basic, targeted health promotion intervention in response to a real health issue affecting a local or virtual community (e.g., your town, campus, workplace, or an online population like college students with anxiety). Your plan will include goals, strategies, and an implementation timeline, and will reflect a clear understanding of both community needs and health education best practices.
