Hello Jim,
Trevor Hancock, Ron Labonte and Rick Edwards did a contract for Health
Canada, I believe, in 1999, called "Indicators that Count! - Measuring
Population Health at the Community Level".  I have only the draft copy, but
the authors or HC may have the published work.
Best wishes,

Subject: Community-Level Indicators of Health
Importance: High


Hello

I am looking for any articles, documents on the measurement and evaluation
of what we term, "community-level" indicators. Community-level indicators
are indicators of health or quality of life that operate at a
supra-individual level. They are more than simply the aggregate of
individual data (even if it is collected in a community-based or
community-wide manner). Typically community-level indicators involve
aspects of the physical, economic or social environment in a given
jurisdiction.

1. Does anyone have information regarding the measurement and evaluation of
"community-level" indicators, as defined above?

2. Does anyone have articles, documents on the special or unique evaluation
issues associated with trying to track and ascertain the impact of
community-level indicators on health or quality of life?


Thanks for any help. Jim
