Here are the responses I received regarding websites
that provide detailed information about health
education program evaluations (from design to
outcomes). Much thanks to those who provided the
information listed here:
Promising Practices Network

NSBAs School Health Programs
http://www.nsba.org/schoolhealth/
Blueprints for Violence Prevention

Out-of-School Time

School Health Education Clearinghouse

Preventing Tobacco Use Among Young People
http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/sgr/sgr_1994/94oshaag.htm
Prevention Programs That Work - SAMHSA
http://www.health.org/govpubs/RPO997/
National Mental Health Association
http://www.nmha.org/children/prevent/effective.cfm
I would also recommend the following that illustrate
the importance of community and school climate (beyond
programming:
www.search-institute.org
http://www.allaboutkids.umn.edu/presskit/monograph.pdf
http://aspe.os.dhhs.gov/HSP/PositiveYouthDev99/
A great evaluation resource is CDC Evaluation Working
Group
http://www.cdc.gov/eval/resources.htm
Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs
(http://www.jhuccp.org)
The Communication Initiative (http://www.comminit.com)
Center for Substance Abuse Prevention has a listing of
their proven programs and so does the Department of
Education, Centers for Disease Control and ONDCP.
Most of these are going to be in relation to drug
prevention programs.

Colleagues:
I have been asked to teach Consumer Economics (for health and family &
consumer science teacher prep majors) this spring semester. Does anyone
have any suggestions for good texts, web sites, and any other resources?
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks very much
