For this Module, continue working on your selected topic ( My topic is teen Pregnancy), you will again conduct a literature search utilizing peer-reviewed journal articles, books, professional organization articles, etc., to help you identify evidence-based strategies to best aIDress the health behavior in your target population and create a program/intervention plan.

Write a paper (full 2-3 pages in length) summarizing your findings on evidence-based strategies and a work plan to aIDress the health behavior. A work plan sample can be found at http://www.cdc.gov/OralHealth/state_programs/pdf/workplans.pdf

The following items will be assessed in particular:

1. Using the same topic you have chosen from Module 12, develop a program goal and at least two objectives (1 learning objective and 1 behavioral objective) for your target population. Your objectives must be specific, measureable, achievable, realistic, and time-phased (SMART). Make sure that you have read the required readings on SMART objectives before developing your goal and objectives.
2. Based on your literature search, provide a summary of evidence-based strategies that have been shown effective in promoting or reducing the behavior in your target population.
3. Identify two evidence-based strategies that you will use to implement your program or intervention. Provide an explanation why you have chosen these strategies and defend your choices.
4. For now, include a work plan table with your goals, objectives, and activities/strategies. NOTE: Other parts of the work plan such as the data measurement tools, timeframe, responsible person, and measures of success will be completed in the next module.
