The campaign combined paid advertising, marketing strategies, and partnership efforts to reach the kids. Other important audiences were parents and adult influencers, including teachers, youth leaders, physical education and health professionals, pediatricians, health care providers, coaches, and others. You can find a huge amount of info about the campaign on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/youthcampaign\/index.htm\" class=\"broken_link\">http:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/youthcampaign\/index.htm<\/a>. This includes many reports on formative research which can prove relevant for other campaigns too.<\/p>\n<p>In the June 2008 special issue of American Journal of Preventive Medicine the entire campaign is evaluated and the results are impressive. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ajpm-online.net\/issues\/contents?issue_key=S0749-3797(08)X0007-8\" class=\"broken_link\">Click here to read the special issue<\/a>.
