OverviewWELCOME
This Web site is designed to provide WISEWOMAN Program practitioners with effective interventions and best practices that help women prevent, delay and control cardiovascular and other chronic diseases by eating healthy, increasing physical activity, and ceasing tobacco use. This website is supported by Cooperative Agreement Number U48 DP000059-04 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention.

The wiseinterventions.org website disseminates:
- Interventions that are multi-component, have core elements that define them, and provide ways of intervening that are likely to have a public health impact. WISE Interventions are reviewed and recommended for dissemination.
- Emerging tools from lifestyle interventions used in WISEWOMAN Programs across the country, but those interventions are not yet fully evaluated.
- Best Practices Toolkit that provides guidance, resources, and technical tools to help recruit, engage and retain program participants; to deliver lifestyle interventions; and to facilitate and maintain behavior change. The Best Practices Toolkit was developed by Mathematica Policy Research, Inc.
- Intervention strategies that provide broad approaches about the best options available for intervening.
