Hi Jim,

For what it's worth now, I did an annotated bibliography on this topic for
Health Canada, Atlantic and Manitoba/Saskatchewan Region in 1999.  There has
been a great deal of work in that area since then, but it may be helpful. It
is available on the Health Canada website at:
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hppb/phdd/determinants/e_deter_biblio.html

Subject: Community-Level Indicators of Health


> 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

> 2. Does anyone have articles, documents on the special or unique
evaluation
