Subject: STD flip charts
Has anyone out there got an STD flip chart appropriate for junior high/high
school age students? We have one from ETR Associates that is great for
younger students (elementary school), but would like one with pictures of STD
and descriptions (symptoms/treatment) for older ages. Please send info directly
to me.
Thanks in advance!

Subject: Re: Qualitative Analysis Software
Mark,
Two of the most popular software programs are "Ethnograph" and
"Nudist". My wife is an anthropology doctoral candidate and has had some
experience with Ethnograph. Other colleagues in nursing have used Nudist with
good results. You can also use a standard word processing program (WordPerfect
or Word) and mark results using symbols (!@#$%, etc.), then use "find" to
locate the paragraphs/responses that you have coded. For example, in reviewing
responses to your open ended questions, you decide that responses to the
question "Good health is the result of..." can be coded as "!=self-determined",
"#=other-determined", and "%=faith=determined". Using these three symbols, you
can do initial coding of the results to this question. You can then use "Edit,
Find" in Word to locate the next example of a given symbol. You can organize
these responses by using "Copy, Paste" to move the data to another Word
document. This allows you to view the grouped responses alone to see if other
themes emerge. Sub-groups then are marked with additional symbols. Good luck!

Subject: Seeking colleges and universities that wish to have an Adult Health &
Development Program (AHDP)
The odds are good that we will receive another training grant to train
(1) adminstrators representing universities, colleges, and high
schools in October followed by training of (2) two faculty from each site
to serve as AHDP directors in early November. Travel, hotel and per diem
will be be paid. Training will take place at College Park, MD.
Administrators and AHDP directors will establish their programs during
the spring and fall, 1998 semesters, and run them thereafter. I am
interested in assessing those sites that may be interested in
participating. Once trained your site is responsible for the financial
and academic support of your AHDP in the future.
The AHDP is a 25 year old intergenerational health promotion and
rehabilitation program at the University of Maryland. Universities that
now have their own AHDPs are Bloomsburg State University, the University
of Delaware, Nicholls State University, and Northern Virginia Community
College. Sites that will be operational by the Fall 1997 are Arizona
State University, University of California at Long Beach, University of
Miami Medical School, Coppin State University, University of South
Alabama, Tuskegee University, and South Carolina State University.
The latter four institutions are Historic Black Colleges and
Universities (HBCUs).
Montgomery Junior College at Takoma Park(MD), Chesapeake College (Wye,
MD), and the University of the District of Columbia developed their
programs in the 1980s before we received our training grants. Sites
waiting for funding to begin their AHDP (they have trained directors) are
Western State University (CO), Utica College, Arkansas State University,
University of Miami at Oxford, and four HBCUs at Clark Atlanta
University, Savannah State University, Paine College, and Florida
A & M. From an international perspective a program operated in
Jerusalem for two years but has not run since 1996. We call this the
National Network for Intergenerational Health NNIH.
The key to the AHDP/NNIH is that students from diverse academic
backgrounds and volunteers are trained to work on a one-to-one basis with
the older institutionalized or non-institutionalized adult to positively
affect health, well-being, and health knowledge status. Staffers are
trained to serve as "friendly coaches" in applying gerontological health
theory and data in working in an egalitarian relationship with their
members.
Typically, older adult "members" fall into 4 categories: Free-living
"community" members, a sub-group of "foreign-born" members, a group of
Veterans Administration Home Nursing home residents, and the
developmentally challenged group.
Around half of the members and "staffers" represent minority/ethnic
groups. At the AHDP at the University of Maryland approximately 80
students and volunteers, 80 "members" and 25 senior staff participate
each semester. Some senior staff and members have been involved for
over 13 years. The AHDP is a health education course, medical school
elective, and partially self-supporting with its own Board of Advisors.
The AHDP/NNIH is the only health promotion program that has always
espoused the use of physical and social activities and health education
as a means of reducing stereotypes thus tightening the social fabric of
the country in this era of violence. The AHDP/NNIH is very
much concerned with the need to eliminate man-made causes of death such
homicide, war, terrorism, racism, poverty, environmental assaults,
accidents, smoking, and other forms of what I call Horrendous Death, that
are preventable since they are not caused by bacteria, virii,
or God.

As promised here is a posting of the results of my request for software to
analyse open ended/qualatative repsonses.
I took a few minutes and did a WWW search on the names that several of you
passed on to me and found the following helpful information. I was able to
download Nud*Ist demo and got a sense of how it (and I assume others)
works.
I also list a couple of summary pages of a number of qualatative software
programs. Finally, I am attaching a low tech word processing approach to
code data that Philip Greiner provided me.

This issue has arisen several times in the past on HEDIR. I'm passing along an item
from Secretary Shalala's most recent email to HHS personnel. It may be worth
sharing
with colleagues and students.
Bob Anderson, WVU
EVEN HOAX COMPUTER VIRUSES CAUSE PROBLEMS
The people who manage the many computer networks throughout the Department
often worry about computer viruses, but recently they have an additional
headache: hoax computer viruses that take the form of e-mail messages
warning of viruses that are, in fact, fictitious. These "friendly warnings"
and "virus alerts" circulate around the Internet world-wide web and then
find their way to mailboxes of people in this department. The threats that
they describe (e.g., that simply reading e-mail will result in a format of
your hard drive) sound horrible but they are, in the expert's opinions, not
feasible. However, it has reached a point where these hoaxes represent
viruses in their own right, in many cases causing more work than a real
virus.
If one of these virus alert messages comes to you:
Do Not panic.
Do Not forward the message to anyone else, except
Do forward the message to your organization's Information Systems
Security Officer (ISSO). A list of ISSO's can be found on a web page that
is reachable from the HHS Homepage. The exact address is

I hope that I can provide some information, not just to Rick, but to anyone
who is looking for the e-mail address of anyone who may have one. You can
easily find a person's e-mail address by using either Netscape Navigator or
Microsoft Explorer. For example in Netscape Navigator (version 3.0) by
pulling down the Directory menu and accessing People, you will go to a
screen where by typing in the person's last name and first name you can see
whether the person has a e-mail address. On this same page I prefer to
"click-on" Four11 site which usually provides me with a "better-hit" on
getting a person's e-mail address. For example I have found the e-mail
address of every Ritzel who has an e-mail address. I have also used this to
find e-mail addresses of persons who I have lost contact.
Rick, by using the process above, I did find the e-mail address for Eileen
Korpita (two of them to be exact).

These people finders are great tools, but they don't show whether
someone has an E-mail address or not. A substantial number of addresses
(probably the majority) are not listed. The time's probably not too far
away when they will use electronic robots to prowl the net, as they do
now with Web search engines, and collect all of our addresses into one
directory. But it hasn't happened yet.

Dale,
I just tried the first 12 names in my E-mail address book, and got three
hits and nine failures using "four11". However, then switching to
"WhoWhere?" I found 8 of the 9 original failures. So ... I humbly

Subject: Celebration of national girls and women in sport week
This message concerns a performance of a one-woman play that can be
used to promote equity and women's history on your campus. Delete now
if you have no interest.
Several years ago I had the pleasure of seeing Jane Curry perform a
play that she had written, "Samantha 'Rastles' the Woman Question",
about concerning history's treatment of women, role assumpttions,
social status, suffrage, etc. In the AAHPERD Update more than a year
ago I saw an ad for another play she was doing about the history of
women in sport called "Nice Girls Don't Sweat". With the support of
the UMD Commission on Women I was able to arrange a performance to
celebrate National Girls and Women in Sports Week. Below is a brief
description and information on how to contact Jane. We had a great
time and I personally enjoyed learning more about women's sports
history from an entertaining and down to earth person like Jane. Your
university, community, or company might invite Jane to present one of
her plays as an educating and entertaining experience.
"Nice Girls Don't Sweat" is a solo performance featuring the character
Sammy Kaye Knight, English teacher and veteran of the All American Red
Heads professional basketball team. She tells stories about women's
experience with athletics over time. With a sense of history and
humor, Sammy Kaye's verbal meanderings engage the enduring themes of
physical capacities, propriety, and femininity.
Sammy Kay can't help but notice that athletic women have always been a
dangerous lot. "After all, it's hard to think of yourself as weak and
dependent after you've just run five miles."
Jane Curry is an author, storyteller, performer, and recoving academic
who received her B.A. from Hanover College and her A.M. and Ph.D. from
the University of Michigan. She toured 9 seasons with the Minnesota
Chautauqua and performs nationally three other show she has written:
"Samantha 'Rastles' the Woman Question", "Just Say Know: Educating
Females for the 21st Century", and "Miz Wizard's Science Secrets".
She lives in Minneapolis with her husband, two cats, and a snowblower.
You can reach Jane Curry at

Subject: Follow-Up on Videoconferencing
Thanks, Isabel, for your information about the videoconference on Youth
Gangs in America. I want to plug the availability and quality of
videoconferences in general. Some of us have experience with less than
optimal videoconferences dating back to the 80s, and you may feel some
reluctance to try on these education opportunities. Also, too few offer
CHES for those who are interested or in need. Still, I urge you to get in
touch with your state health department, locate the distance learning
coordinator, and take a look at what's available.
I just finished coordinating the arrangements for the downlink of a three
part videoconference series on tuberculosis for our city/county department
of public health. Attendance was high, and the quality was remarkable.
The quantitative results of the evaluation on a scale of 1-5--all 4s and
5s. I'm expecting to hear something in the range of 4.5-4.7 at our debrief
today. The open ended comments were raves. This from an audience of MDs,
RNs, Lab Techs, Health Educators, and Outreach Workers. The quality of
programs has certainly improved.
If you happen to be interested in the area of adult immunization--an
upcoming program is Adult Immunization: Strategies That Work--A Public
Health Training Network Satellite Videoconference, April 24, 1997, with
three broadcast times (all ET) - 8:00 AM - 10:30 AM; 11:00 - 1:30 PM; 2:00

Subject: Re: Outcome Measures (fwd)
I think some of the best evaluation/outcome&process comes out of the area
of substance abuse prevention. Partly because the substance abuse field
has come under some attacks in the past (as has mental health) for having
trouble substantiating effectiveness in the prevention and treatment area.
Contact people in your area (at the State or community level). Ask about
some of the evaluation-related material they use, and especially about a
publication out of DHHS called PREVENTION III.

Hi Ken,
Ken Wilber's books offer a very sophisticated approach to spiritual
health. One of his latest is Sex, Ecology, and Spirituality. I find the
book extremely helpful but thin soup it is not. His newest book is The
Eye of Spirit, which is also good but more technical. For an applied
approach you might want to check out Leonard and Murphy's The Life We Are
Given. Happy reading! Larry Fahlberg

Subject: A reminder
Fellow HEDIRs...
I'm probably not the best one to talk about this since I violated this rule,
but here goes.
A few days ago John Harvey offered a copy of the booklet, and I am glad he
did so--that is the intend of HEDIR. Since that offer, John has received a
number of requests from the HEDIR for personal copies. Just as a reminder,
unless it is extremely important for all of HEDIR to hear, DO NOT HIT
"REPLY" TO A HEDIR MESSAGE. Your response will go to everybody.
I think we all realize how easy it is to make that mistake--granted I even
pulled that boner last month (I think twice)...(and I must admit the HEDIR
audience was awful kind to me--nobody sent me one of those "don't do it memos").
Please, refrain from replying to a hedir unless it is extremely important
for all participants. In the Harvey case, I don't think it is important for
all subscribers to know that you want his booklet.

Hello everyone,
a parish minister called me this morning with an inquiry which I might
not be able to report back without your assistance. It has been more than
six years since I worked with the issue.
There is interest in knowing what other nations might be doing for the
prevention of suicide in the form of peer education or social support re:
the preventive domain. The age group they are most interested in is
seventeen.
If you know about or presently carry out suicide prevention programs for
teens (pref. seventeen-year olds) with an emphasis on peer
education/support, I would like to hear from you. Information about
sources of information would be particularly appreciated. Thank you.

Dear Colleagues:
At the present time we are exploring ways to survey schools regarding
the quality of their Comprehensive School Health Program. Last quarter,
as a class project we utilized Dr. Bill Kane's "Assessment Worksheets"
published in his book Step by Step to Comprehensive School Health: The
Program Planning Guide published by ETR Associates. We surveyed a
variety of elementary and secondary schools in the State of Oregon.
We are now planning ways to expand our methods of gathering data to
determine the status of local school health programs. Are you familiar
with any other survey's or methods which could be used to assess the school
health program?
Thank you for your insights. We will be glad to share our findings with
you.

i seem to remember belonging to a list where the default reply was to
the sender, not the list. perhaps that was never the case and my faulty
memory is the result of gray cells dying at an exponential rate.
however, on the off-chance that my memory isn't going quite as quickly
as i and others suspect, i wonder if a solution to our list's exorbitant
number of personal replies clogging our listserv mail folders isn't to
make the default to the person and forcing us to reply to the list if,
indeed, that is what we wish to do.
what think, mark?

Subject: church based health promotion program
I need help. I just joined my church's health council so I can share my
views and experiences in health promotions. What I have found was a
mess! It is runned by parish nurses who have not done an assessment of
the community and shoved a list of classes for the community to chose
which one they are interested in. They call this a "needs assessment."
And the results are low particiatpion and a waste of money.
My question is: I found one article about health promotion in a church
community. Are there any other information that anyone has come across
where I could get ideas and get assessments sensitive to religious
beliefs? Anyone involved with this type of community who could share
their experiences with me.

Call your local American Diabetes Association. Ours (Oregon) is doing an
innovative health promotion project in churches (primarily in the
African-American population) called "Diabetes Sundays" - perhaps there is a way
to model your project after this one. You may also want to consider some
"screening" activities before putting a curriculum of classes together, whcih
might lead you down the most needed path. One place to try is your local Lion's
Organization, usually the main sponsor of the Eye Bank in your main city. They
have a mobile screening van which can do screenings for blood glucose, hearing,
vision, blood pressure and a few other things. They do this for free and
usually it must be done via a non-profit organization, like the church. Try
that and see what happens...let me know if you need any more information! Good

A couple of resources that might be helpful, include
1) the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. The basic contact at the national
level is North American Division Tel: (301) 680-6400 . What you want to
ask for is the Health & Temperence Department. The SDA Church has produced
a number of non-sectarian health promotion resources including stop smoking
programs, lowfat cooking school materials, etc... The National office
should be able to hook you up with some of the resources you need.
2) A Group called the Christian Community Health Fellowship is a
non-denominational organization that produces some materials but is also a
clearinghouse of contacts for churches doing community based health
ministries. The last contact info I had on this group was that they were
based in Philadelphia at the phone # 215-877-1200.
3) Finally, I was unable to locate it but I know that CDC produced a
compilation of studies on African American Churches involvement in
Hypertenson control.
Hope this helps

From: Ansa Ojanlatva
Subject: Re: questions
Rebecca, (for Physicians' Asst. Program)
take a look at the January 1997 issue of Medical Education (I believe it
was the latest issue). There is an article about topics to be covered in
education about communicative issues. The authors (sorry I can't remember
their names, from Australia?) justify the issues which would be important
to be taught. At the same time, many are health promotion issues, and
these would be good ones to start with.
Second, you need to make the teaching systematic with mission, goals and
objectives which are repeated year after year in the best "spot" of the
curriculum, regardless how long the teaching lasts. Justify need, and
approach the curriculum committee to get the time and space.
Third, make sure you know what you are doing. For those involved in
clinical stuff, being careful, detailed, and accurate with information is
important. It must not be belittled. It is important to recognize this
(one may not want to agree with all). It is for the benefit of all of us.
Health promotion is not nec. soft science (the topics may be different) but
essential for public's health (see what Dr. Koop wrote about prevention),
the approach is often "soft". There is a difference. When
communication is illustrated as important and that it works, you can
integrate health promotion. If someone approaches health promotion as
soft science because it may be using qualitative methodology, take a
look at how medical science is developing. According to some, most medical
approaches might be classified as qualitative...
With young students, I have been able to illustrate the need
through personal development. When they find it important in their own
lives, they see the importance in the lives of others. When e.g. young
people learn the healthy expressions of sexual arousal, it helps them
recognize what is needed to make diagnoses. Changing attitudes to see
what is important is often a tidious process.
I would tend to think that you need to figure out what is important,
build the program gradually with issues and methods that are needed and
work in medicine, and be systematic in your approach. I hope this helps.

As indicated by some of the other responders, there has been
substantial work on health promotion through the faith community. The
Pawtucket Heart Health program published several articles on accessing
and working with churches, and Geni Eng and John Hatch (UNC-Chapel
Hill) have more than 20 years of experience in working with churches
in North Carolina, some of which have been published. I think some of
the Pawtucket work was published in Health Education Research, while
one of Geni's articles on the North Carolina experience was published
in Health Education Quarterly F(1988) in the theme issue on ecological
approaches.
There is also an active effort within the American Public Health

Subject: CHES contact hours
I have attended some excellent seminars provided by INR (Institute for
Natural Resources). I just called the NCHEC to find out if we can get INR
to be a provider of continuint ed. contact hours. The woman I spoke with
said that INR is very interested in doing so, (as is NCHEC), but in
order to do this, INR needs a person who is a CHES to serve on their
planning committee. This would have to be a person who resides in the
Berkeley, CA, area. Is anyone out there interested? This would be an
excellent addition to our opportunities for CHES credits.
If interested, call the NCHEC: 610/264-8200.

If you don't find an acceptable model for community assessment that you
want to use I can highly recommend A. Rossett TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
(pub. by Ed. Tech. Pubs. of Englewood Cliffs, NJ.) 1987. She provides
useful descriptions of various models, down to earth and usable ideas.
Also, good disucssion of supporting tools. I strongly support your
instinct of the value of a good community health needs assessment.

Interesting. I would never have thought to recommend Allison's book as a
community needs assessment text. Although she has excellent stuff with
lots of illustrations and step by steps, I don't see Allison's work as
having enough depth from a community assessment point of view ( such as
techniques for resource mapping, media analysis, patterns of utilization,
etc). Her book is basically looking at Organizational needs assessments of
which I think it is the best text out there. For a couple of other
community texts, I would recommend:
Dignan & Carr, Program planning for health education and health promotion
Lea & Febiger, (1987) Philly. ISBN 0-8121-1091-9.
One caveat, Dignan & Carr omit the important step of generating
alternatives in between the community diagnosis step & program focus step.
Bunch, Two Ears of Corn: A guide to people centered agricultural
improvement World Neighbors Press Ok Ckty, OK 1985 ISBN 0-942716-03-05
