MAPPS Interventions for Communities Putting Prevention to Work
Five evidence-based MAPPS strategies, when combined, can have a profound influence on improving

health behaviors by changing community environments: Media, Access, Point of decision information,

Price, and Social support/services. The evidence-based interventions below are drawn from the peer-

reviewed literature as well as expert syntheses from the community guide and other peer-reviewed sources,

cited below. Communities and states have found these interventions to be successful in practice.

Awardees are expected to use this list of evidence-based strategies to design a comprehensive and robust

set of strategies to produce the desired outcomes for the initiative.
