This article features two exemplary programs in health education practice: (1) Project L.E.A.P (Learning Effective and Applicable Parenting); and (2) A program that uses a pedestrian count tool to measure environmental and health promotion efforts. Project L.E.A.P. was developed by the Atlanta Alliance on Developmental Disabilities to promote parenting skills among parents with intellectual disabilities. The second program was developed by the Northern Kentucky Health Department to identify a reliable monitoring tool to assess their progress in the promotion of walkable community initiatives. This tool was to become an integral part of the walkability initiatives of the City of Erlanger, Kentucky.
