which nhpa it is addressing
who runs it
reasons for implementation [e.g. the aim]
what they do
how they do it

Sorry, I mean what sort of points when it asks specifically to describe the program. So, for example, would this be a good example for Injury Prevention and Control?
KidSafe implemented by the National Youth Accident Foundation aims to decrease child injury incidence by

• campaigning for legislation changes of harsher penalties for drivers with unrestrained children in cars
• running seminars for parents and teachers about how to minimise injury risks in the home, at school and outdoors
• its website has fact sheets about how to prevent and treat a range of injuries such as burns and scalds

Awesome, thanks!
Revision is so-so...I've been doing a lot of questions, but I've been lazy when it comes to learning stuff I don't actually know, haha! I need to work on UN, WHO and the Australian health care system...
What about you?
