Guide to Community Preventive Services: Physical Activity Intervention Recommendations

This guide produced by the U.S. Preventive Service Task Force and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reviews community-level interventions to increase physical activity. The guide covers three topic areas: informational approaches (e.g. campus-wide campaigns), behavioral and social approaches (e.g. school-based physical education) and environmental and policy approaches (e.g. walking trails) and highlights recommended approaches for increasing physical activity levels.
