A major goal of federal, state, and local health agencies is to reduce the burden of disease in populations. To obtain sufficient resources to achieve this goal, they must document the importance of the health problems addressed and the impact and efficiency of programs. CDC supports core activities within state and local health departments to promote health and prevent disease. This presentation will focus on the need for evidence to document the effectiveness of these activities that include routine monitoring of oral health, risk behaviors, and other factors; implementing effective population-based interventions; and evaluating programs to ensure successful translation of interventions. CDC supports research to build the evidence for innovative strategies to promote oral health in communities. This presentation should increase awareness of evidence-based tools and activities that are supported by CDC to strengthen public health practice within states.
联邦、州和地方卫生机构的一个主要目标是减轻人群中的疾病负担。为了获得足够的资源来实现这一目标，他们必须证明所解决的健康问题的重要性以及项目的影响和效率。疾病控制与预防中心支持州和地方卫生部门开展核心活动以促进健康和预防疾病。本报告将重点阐述提供证据以证明这些活动有效性的必要性，这些活动包括对口腔健康、风险行为及其他因素进行常规监测；实施有效的基于人群的干预措施；以及评估项目以确保干预措施成功转化。疾病控制与预防中心支持开展研究，为促进社区口腔健康的创新策略提供证据。本报告应提高人们对疾病控制与预防中心所支持的循证工具和活动的认识，这些工具和活动旨在加强各州的公共卫生实践。
