Second Part:
Overview: As a future community health professional, you will likely identify issues in the community related to your work. In order to effect change, you will
need to identify risk factors and the impact of that issue on the community. You may need to involve stakeholders within the community to help you plan and
implement programs to resolve the identified issue. This milestone provides practice for effective community engagement, which involves developing
partnerships with local stakeholders and having them become active partners in assessing local health problems. Community engagement is a critical
component
of community health education and in the development of community health programs.
