Abstract

Current understanding of what sustains public health programs is derived primarily from evaluations of programs delivered for only a few years. To improve program planning and knowledge on program sustainment, we examined real-world population programs that have been delivered for >2 years. Our focus was physical activity and nutrition programs for obesity prevention. We identified programs through published literature and searched through publicly available information on the theoretical factors determining sustainment. We reviewed 90 programs and explored intervention characteristics, provider, delivery and process level factors, and the outer environment influences.
