The RE-AIM Framework

The RE-AIM Framework is a tool used to evaluate health programs and initiatives. It focuses on five key areas: Reach (how many people the program affects), Effectiveness (the impact on participants’ health), Adoption (how well organizations implement it), Implementation (the consistency and quality of delivery), and Maintenance (long-term sustainability). By examining these areas, stakeholders can determine whether a program is successful, how it can be improved, and if it can be effectively scaled or sustained over time. This helps ensure health efforts are effective, practical, and capable of making a lasting difference.
