Health experts independently state that the most critical urban
problems are preventable. This brings an added challenge to public
health practitioners working in inner cities with predominately
minority communities. In addition to deadly diseases - including
transmittable diseases - violence, whether it is physical, sexual
or child abuse, is the other predominant morbidity factor that
urban areas confront.
Because of these concerns, there is a need for health professionals
working with the communities to critically examine health behavior
theories and prevention methodologies. Additionally, new prevention
practices and programs need to be developed for community-based
interventions to better serve the populations in need including
programs in:
-HIV Prevention;
-Evaluation and Policy Research;
-Cancer Prevention and Screening;
-Urban Public Health Policy;
-Youth Violence Prevention.
