Explain the evidence by providing links, a description, and summary of the program(s).
Format your assignment as one of the following:

The two Week Three assignments are intended to be associated with each other. For example, the five health indicators in the Week Three PLA assignment need to be related to the health indicator chosen for the Week Three Public Health Program Planning assignment.
This means that if a student chose the health indicator of tobacco use for the Public Health Program Planning assignment, the related health indicators to tobacco use can be used in the graph in the PLA assignment, (i.e. heart disease, lung cancer, etc.). In this way, there needs to be a brief rationale for the association (i.e. tobacco use increases the risk of heart disease). The gaps in the programming relates to, for example, are there enough smoking bans, smoking cessation programs, etc. in the state.

see directions on the public health assignment, the second assignment, (concept/mind map) needs to be base on the public health planning assignment. For example, I chose the leading health indicator of mental health, the leading heath indicators for mental health would be major depressive disorder and suicide and substance use.
