What is known about them? • What change is planned to solve or lessen the problem? • What measurable objectives can be established to define success? • What should the target audience be told? (message strategies)

  3. Select Channels and Media • Are there any existing materials that could be adapted for the program? • Which channels are most appropriate for reaching the target audience (e.g., worksite, mass media, face-to-face)? • What formats will best suit the channels and the messages (e.g., booklets, videotapes, curricula)?

  4. Delivery Channels • face-to-face-- (health care professional to patient, peers, family members) • group delivery-- (worksite or classroom) • organizational-- (member of your network) • mass media-- ( radio, television, magazines, direct mail, billboards, transit cards, newspapers) • community --( employers, schools, malls, health fairs, local agencies) • a combination of any or all of these ( likely to work best)

Considerations • Language may vary among different cultural groups (e.g., a word may have different meanings to different groups) • Differences in target groups extend beyond language to include diverse values and customs • Certain channels types may be more credible • Don't assume that "conventional wisdom,'' published research studies, or "common knowledge" will hold true for all audiences. • Print materials should be simply written, reinforced with graphics, and pretested. • Audiovisual materials or interpersonal communication may be more successful for some messages and audiences
