Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

97
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.
Foundations of Community Mental Health Programs
Central to the success of community-based interventions is the...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.2K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

1.7K
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

13.3K
Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Quantifying Heat

56.4K
Thermal Energy Microscopically, thermal energy is the kinetic energy associated with the random motion of atoms and molecules. Temperature is a quantitative measure of “hot” or “cold”, which depends on the amount of thermal energy. When the atoms and molecules in an object are moving or vibrating quickly, they have a higher average kinetic energy (KE) (or higher thermal energy), and the object is perceived as “hot”, or it is described as being at a...

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Urban Planning
  • Community Engagement

Background:

  • Extreme heat events are exacerbated by climate change, disproportionately affecting urban populations.
  • Disadvantaged communities often lack green space, increasing their vulnerability to urban heat island effects.
  • Historical injustices like redlining have created disparities in access to urban green infrastructure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate community engagement strategies for involving heat-vulnerable communities in urban greening research.
  • To explore multistakeholder co-creation in designing and implementing heat-adaptive urban greening initiatives.
  • To foster environmental justice through inclusive participation in urban planning.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted semi-structured interviews with community leaders in heat-vulnerable New York City neighborhoods.
  • Explored community co-creation in tree planting design and implementation.
  • Compared community leader perspectives with those of urban tree professionals and other community groups.

Main Results:

  • Participants emphasized environmental justice, intergenerational engagement, community building, and socioecological relationships.
  • Community leaders highlighted the importance of experiential knowledge.
  • A notable difference was a reduced emphasis on volunteer community stewardship among community leaders.

Conclusions:

  • Findings inform research processes and community engagement for urban greening projects.
  • Online resources and addressing community-specific concerns are crucial for effective engagement.
  • Recommends future steps for inclusive, equitable urban greening strategies to build heat resilience.
