Multiple Behavior Change
Effective across a wide range of behaviors, one of the most unique aspects of Pro-Change’s research based system is its ability to help people enhance their quality of life by changing multiple behaviors. Pro-Change leads the field in applying the highest impact strategies for simultaneous behavior change that lead to changing multiple behaviors for healthy weight and disease management.
Our latest multiple behavior change program, Proactive Health Consumer (PHC), is designed to help individuals become proactive health consumers by making informed decisions, sharing in decision making with their health care providers, using health services wisely, and taking more responsibility for their health and well-being.
See our PHC Demo for more information.
