Abstract: Chronic diseases significantly burden global health systems, necessitating effective prevention strategies at the primary care level. This paper comprehensively reviews community-based approaches to developing chronic disease prevention programs in primary care centers. We systematically analyzed literature published up to 2015 to examine various strategies, implementation methods, and outcomes across primary care settings. Our findings indicate that successful chronic disease prevention programs often involve multi-component interventions, strong community partnerships, and integration with existing primary care services. However, challenges such as resource constraints, sustainability issues, and the need for cultural adaptation persist. This research provides valuable insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and community leaders seeking to implement effective chronic disease prevention programs in primary care settings.
