The hopes and hazards of health goals development.
As part of the Edmonton Board of Health's centennial celebrations, health goals and objectives were developed for the city. The intensely collaborative process used to develop the goals and objectives is reviewed and critical activities such as communication, media and community involvement, committee membership, and implementation are discussed. It is hoped that the information will be useful for others who are developing health goals and objectives at the municipal level.
