Health promotion theory and practice is grounded in the belief that health is far more than the absence of disease. In order to influence most effectively the health of communities, Community Health Centres must balance their attention and resources amongst medical, lifestyle/behavioural, and socioenvironmental approaches to health promotion. This discussion will include an overview of these approaches to health promotion based on current literature. Community Health Centres need to incorporate a variety of complementary health promotion approaches into their core services and activities. An analysis of one model, which integrates health promotion and population health, is provided with a discussion of its application in creating healthy communities.

Some typical activities of health educators employed in public and private settings in California are reported. These reports are based upon interviews with a number of directors of health education programs and the chairpersons of two university programs. Typical activities include the generalist role of rural health educators, the emphasis of urban health educators on health promotion programs, patient education as a major activity of health educators in medical care settings, and the continued commitment of health educators in occupational settings to community health education. The diversity of activities in which health educators in California are engaged suggests the outlook for the eighties is for many arenas for the practice of health education.
