This report describes the use of the Community Resource Inventory to measure change in community health activities. The inventory consists of a survey of all organizations within a geographical area that might be mobilized for risk factor reduction. The inventory was utilized prior to, and again 3 years after, implementation of a health promotion campaign in a rural county and in a matched reference county. It revealed an increase in health promotion activities in key community institutions in the experimental county during a period when these activities were declining in the reference county. The Community Resource Inventory is a promising method of measuring community change and can be useful in monitoring the progress of programs in which there is a long period of latency between program initiation and measurement of outcomes, such as reduction in cardiovascular mortality.
本报告描述了使用社区资源清单来衡量社区健康活动的变化情况。该清单包括对一个地理区域内所有可能被动员起来降低风险因素的组织进行的调查。在一个农村县和一个匹配的参照县实施健康促进活动之前以及实施三年后，均使用了该清单。结果显示，在参照县这些活动减少的时期内，实验县的关键社区机构中的健康促进活动有所增加。社区资源清单是一种很有前景的衡量社区变化的方法，可用于监测那些在项目启动和结果测量之间存在很长潜伏期的项目进展情况，比如心血管死亡率的降低。
