Environmental Prevention
CoPALM and Environmental Prevention:
Environmental prevention is based in the public health model of affecting health-related behaviors by addressing communities. This approach emphasizes the broader physical, social, cultural and institutional forces that contribute to the problems within a community. Environmental strategies incorporate prevention efforts aimed at changing or influencing community conditions, standards, institutions, structures, systems, norms and policies.
