This introduction is an overview of the articles presented in this supplement that describe implementation and evaluation activities conducted as part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CPPW) initiative. CPPW was one of the largest federal investments ever to combat chronic diseases in the United States. CPPW supported high-impact, jurisdiction-wide policy, systems, and environmental changes to improve health by increasing access to physical activity and healthy foods, and by decreasing tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke. The articles included in this supplement describe implementation and evaluation efforts of strategies implemented as part of CPPW by local awardees. This supplement is intended to guide the evidence base for public health interventions on the basis of jurisdiction-wide policy and environmental-level improvements and to encourage rigorous evaluation of the public health interventions.
本引言概述了本增刊中所呈现的文章，这些文章描述了作为美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的“社区将预防付诸行动”（CPPW）倡议的一部分所开展的实施和评估活动。CPPW是美国有史以来为抗击慢性病进行的最大规模联邦投资之一。CPPW支持在辖区范围内开展具有高影响力的政策、系统和环境变革，以通过增加体育活动和健康食品的可及性，以及减少烟草使用和二手烟暴露来改善健康状况。本增刊中的文章描述了当地受奖者作为CPPW一部分所实施策略的实施和评估工作。本增刊旨在基于辖区范围内的政策和环境层面改善情况，为公共卫生干预措施提供证据基础，并鼓励对公共卫生干预措施进行严格评估。
