Modifying Dietary and Tobacco Use Patterns in the Worksite: The Take Heart Project.

Glasgow, Russell E.; And Others

Health Education Quarterly, v21 n1 p69-82 Spr 1994

The Take Heart Project in 36 worksites sought changes in tobacco use, cholesterol, and fat intake. Employee steering committees selected brief, low-intensity health education and environmental change activities. The project is an effective way to tailor interventions to worksites, taking into account site and employee characteristics and previous health promotion programs. (SK)
