Hello,

Health Nexus is also redesigning our website, and we will continue to highlight our health promotion resources - specifically:

* 25 key health promotion resources http://www.healthnexus.ca/events/25th_anniversary/august.html
* Health Promotion Primer http://www.healthnexus.ca/our_programs/hprc/hp_primer.html - and 
* Starting Out in Health Promotion http://www.healthnexus.ca/our_programs/hprc/pdf/Starting_Out_in_Health_Promotion.pdf 
* 10 key 'info sheets' or FAQs on HP and determinants of health http://www.healthnexus.ca/our_programs/hprc/intro_sheets.html , including 
*  "What skills do I need for health promotion?" http://www.healthnexus.ca/our_programs/hprc/healthpromoter.html 

For databases and Portals - the Canadian Best Practices Portal for Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention http://www.phac.gc.ca/cbpp is one of your best first stops for resources and interventions, as well as finding the website that meets your needs for planning and implementing health promotion

We continue to recommend the HP101 http://www.thcu.ca/hp101/eng/main.cfm  and expect to see content updated on it over the next few months.

Subject: [CLICK4HP] Looking for key/essential resource on HP

Hi everyone,

Our organization (the Health Promotion Clearinghouse) is in the process of redesigning our website. Our mission is "supporting Nova Scotia's health promoters to foster healthy people and healthy communities". 

I am looking for any suggestions you may have as to key/essential resources related to health promotion for our "Key Online Resources" page. 

More specifically, I am looking for: 
- Online Courses
- Databases and Portals
- Other Tools
- Health Promotion Basics (e.g. definitions and concepts, determinants of health, etc.)

I am aware of HP 101 (OHPRS) developed in 2005. Is it still as relevant as it was? Is anyone aware of similar more recent resources? 

Any input would be greatly appreciated. I will collect your responses and send you a compilation once completed.

Many thanks,

Caroline
