Question: Overview: In this submission, you should identify a local, national or international program or intervention that addresses your selected issue (HIV in Adolescents) and assess its impact on the issue at the respective level (local, national or international impact). You should identify any contributions that have been made by public health agencies, positions, or roles with regard to your selected issue and discuss the impact that each had on program or intervention outcomes. Then, evaluate the success of the selected program or intervention, giving justification for your evaluation. Identify the social and behavioral factors that the program or intervention addressed, and evaluate whether or not addressing these factors contributed to the success of the program or intervention, making sure to justify your reasoning. Similarly, identify the determinants of health that this program or intervention addressed and evaluate whether or not addressing the determinants contributed to the success of the program or intervention, making sure to justify your reasoning. Analyze the program or intervention's use of public health principles and theories to promote behavior change. What principles and theories were used? How did the use of these principles and theories promote behavior change? Discuss and analyze any challenges that you feel the program or intervention may have faced. If you feel that no challenges were encountered, what do you think were some challenges that the program or intervention could have faced? Finally, explain how you feel the program or intervention could have been improved, making sure to apply basic public health principles or theories discussed in the course, and taking care to support your claims.
