Progress Monitoring Report
This progress monitoring report was designed to enable state programs to provide detailed information on their activities. This
is your opportunity to ensure that CDC understands your state program. The following questions appear in order of the state
recipient activities (core capacities: I–VI). At the end of the instrument, there is additional space available to write about any
other activities that your state was involved in that did not fit into one of the recipient activities.
We are aware that several answers may be "no," "in progress," or "not yet"—that is expected. If an item does not apply to
your circumstances, please feel free to enter "NA" or "nothing to report" into the relevant text box. Each reporting period, you
will be able to update this report. This report has been automated on-line so that you can import your previous answers as
appropriate. Only events that occurred during the most recent period need to be updated. The system is designed to make it
easy for you to update, delete, or add information. We may need to follow up with you on some of the information you provide
(e.g., to highlight success stories, to clarify details).
This progress monitoring report will serve the following purposes:
1.
2.

monitor the activities and progress of funded states in CDC’s Nutrition and Physical Activity Program to Prevent Obesity
and Other Chronic Diseases; and
assist CDC in providing funded states with appropriate technical assistance that will lead to program effectiveness and
improvement.

Please provide updated information covering the period from January 1st, 2007 to June 30th, 2007.

This next series of questions asks you to describe any POLICIES, LEGISLATIVE ACTS, or ENVIRONMENTAL
CHANGES that were initiated, modified or enforced as a result of the state planning process during the past 6
months. Please do not provide the same answer in more than one place.
Policy is defined as those laws, regulations, formal, and informal rules and understandings that are adopted on a
collective basis to guide individual and collective behavior. Environmental change may result from either policy or
legislation, but there is no need to repeat the same information for the question about environmental change. Use
the final question in this series on policies to cover any environmental change that may have occurred unrelated
to policy or legislation. Please include changes on the state, regional, or local levels, as appropriate.

IM1: If you have any questions while filling out this form, please feel free to contact us or our contractor, RTI at
1-800-344-1393
, or send e-mail to [email protected].
Please provide updated information covering the period January 1st, 2007 to June 30th, 2007.
This section of the report addresses recipient activity #5:
Implement an intervention to prevent obesity and other chronic diseases.

For all questions about your intervention(s), please answer as best you can at this point in time. Please feel free
to leave something blank if you are not yet that far along. You will have an opportunity during later progress
reports to add information and indicate if something has changed.
Please respond to the next series of questions for only one intervention at a time. The full series of questions will
be repeated subsequently for each additional intervention, as needed.
We define an intervention operationally as “A prescribed series of activities grounded within a socioecologic
framework with the main purpose of changing and/or influencing existing obesity -, nutrition- and physical
activity-related behaviors and/or practices.” At a minimum, an intervention should contain all of the following
components:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

Grounded in theory and applied within the Socio-Ecologic Framework,
Defined purpose with clearly stated goals and objectives,
Expected outcomes (to include BMI/BMI for age when appropriate),
Defined intervention methodology (where, when and how),
Strategy for implementation (to include collaboration with partners),
Identified target population(s) as described in State Plan,
Defined evaluation methodology.

Include pilot projects, interventions that Nutrition and Physical Activity Program to Prevent Obesity and Other
Chronic Diseases funds have contributed to, interventions based on Nutrition and Physical Activity Program to
Prevent Obesity and Other Chronic Diseases-funded ideas/concepts, etc.
Please include any intervention that is still active. An active intervention is one that is still in the field or whose
evaluation is ongoing.

d
e
f
g
factors, environmental factors, and human behavior exert influence upon each other.]

d
e
f
g
Participatory Models emphasize community-driven approaches to assessing and solving health and social
problems.]

fitness centers at the worksite, combined with health education [Definitions: Enhanced access
to physical activity strategies in combination with health education are interventions that enable or

facilitate access to programs, workshops, classes, and other resources in a worksite setting for
physical activity. Such strategies included development of walking trails, building of fitness center at
the worksite, par course, etc]

c Multi-component educational interventions which incorporated exercise prescriptions,
d
e
f
g
nutrition prescriptions, and/or small media in addition to health education sessions
[Definitions: Multi-component educational interventions are aimed at provision of information, with
the curriculum/modules addressing health promotion programs (e.g., healthy lifestyles, physical
activity, nutrition) and risk reduction programs (e.g., weight management, cardiovascular (CVD)
risks, diabetes risks, etc.). Health education sessions can be considered mild, moderate or intensive.
In addition to health education sessions, these studies incorporated components such as 1) exercise
prescription, 2) nutrition prescription, and 3) small media. It was a challenge to evaluate multi component educational interventions. These interventions were evaluated together because it was not
possible to separate out health education alone from other components.]

c Exercise prescriptions alone [Definitions: Exercise prescription involves a planned or

g
structured physical activity regimen given to an individual or group with specific recommendations on
the frequency, intensity, and type of exercise.]
c Weight loss competitions [Definitions: Weight-loss competitions and Incentive-based
d
e
f
g
Interventions are competitions and incentives consist of rewards for weight loss and/or behavior
change such as increase physical activity or improve nutrition. The rewards can be in-kind, financial,
or the honor/pride of winning. The incentives can vary in size and types and can be used for
screening, enrollment, compliance (staying in the program), completion of the program, and /or
maintenance of the changes after the interventions.
c Behavioral interventions without incentives [Definitions: Behavioral interventions teach
d
e
f
g
behavioral management skills, modeling or demonstration, participatory skill development, individual
benchmarking (i.e., goal-setting and achievement), providing feedback and building social for
behavioral patterns.

c Behavioral interventions with incentives [Definitions: These programs teach participants

to improve the quality of physical education offered to children ages K -8 across the State, through private and
public programs. The training is provided to various organizations across the State (e.g. summer feeding
programs, camps, church leagues, schools, etc.). The trainings are comprised of 1) a 35 minute PowerPoint
presentation indicating the major parts of the training, addressing behavioral problems, and bringing the
participants up to an even playing field and 2) a 2.5 hours hands-on training introducing games and techniques to
be used in any setting where children are involved in physical activity.
License to Breastfeed Wallet Cards: The aims of this program are to increase breastfeeding rates and improve
short and long term health of maternal/infant health in the AME congregations. The state provides a wallet card

that invokes the state law reinforcing women's legal right to breastfeed.
