American Heart Association

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation

The American Heart Association and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation have joined with NIH in this groundbreaking program. These organizations became involved because the focal behaviors of tobacco use, exercise, diet, and alcohol abuse are behaviors with implications for a wide array of health outcomes for both women and men, including cancer, infectious and allergic diseases, osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, depression, periodontal diseases, obesity, and kidney diseases, as well as related outcomes such as mood and affect, functional impairment, disability, quality of life, and health care utilization. The behaviors of interest also share a common conceptual basis for change, and each can benefit from findings from research on learning, motivation, risk perception, and the like.
