The status of the Growing Healthy curriculum (School Health Curriculum Project [SHCP]) was examined in the eight sites selected in 1969 by the National Clearinghouse on Smoking and Health to receive funded training and implementation support. A contact person from each site completed and returned a questionnaire pertaining to the district's continued implementation (institutionalization) of the SHCP. Most districts had not continued to implement the program. Reasons for discontinuation included loss of the "program champion" and insufficient administrative leadership. Districts continuing to implement the program generally were smaller in size, and employed a part-time coordinator for the SHCP. Recommendations for institutionalizing future instruction programs include identifying replacement program coordinators and other administrators to ensure continuity and support for the program over time, and conducting process and impact evaluations on program effects.
