• Narrow the health problem by showing its relationship to the targeted population, including target population specific data such as unique characteristics of your target
population that interact with the health issue, and/or make the population particularly
vulnerable to the chosen health problem. In other words, tell me who your target

the health problem and/or health behaviors are especially bad in this population; why
is this pop especially vulnerable to this health problem; etc.)
• What behavior(s) or social/environmental factors contribute to this health problem? Which behavior(s) and/or factors, which contribute to the above health problem, will

Include any lessons learned or implications for programming from previous
programs. Also consider what factors must be taken into account for an intervention
to be successful.
