Briefly describe your selected population and their targeted health behavior.

Assignment: Final Project Milestone 3: Brochure as a Strategy to Change Behavior

This week, you will create a printable brochure that can be used to help your selected population change the health behavior you identified. Goals for your brochure might include increasing awareness, teaching a new skill, providing information about services, or increasing self-efficacy.

Note: This brochure will be included in your Final Project as on of the two required strategies you must develop to help your selected population change the health behavior you identified.

To prepare:

Review the Final Project Instructions PDF in your Learning Resources.

Consider your Final Project health issue, population, and related health behavior.

Research credible resources to support the development of your brochure. Use resources that provide information on your selected health issue, population, and/or your selected theory or model.

Review “Clear & Simple” by the National Institutes of Health, which is found in your Learning Resources.

Review “The SMOG Readability Formula, a Simple Measure of Gobbledygook” ReadabilityForumulas.com, which is found in your Learning Resources.

In the files I have included a summary of what the final project should pertain to.

Resources:

Clear and simple found @ https://www.nih.gov/institutes-nih/nih-office-director/office-communications-public-liaison/clear-communication/clear-simple

The Smog report @ https://www.readabilityformulas.com/smog-readability-formula.php

Again this brochure should be geared towards the African American Community and diabetes. Age group 45 – 64 and 65 – 74. I also thought that social media could play a role. Looking at obesity because in most cases diagnosed that was part of the problem.

Part 1: Brochure

Create a six-panel persuasive brochure that you can use to influence your selected population to change a behavior that is affecting their health.

Be sure to use at least two constructs from your selected theory or model to influence the specific health behavior.

When your brochure is complete, conduct a SMOG analysis on the content of the brochure.

Part 2: Brochure Explanation and Analysis

In a 1-page MS Word document:

Briefly describe your selected population and their targeted health behavior.

Explain the specific constructs you chose to use in creating your brochure and how you used the constructs to create your message.

Include the results of the SMOG analysis and an explanation of what you changed based on the results.
