ASSIGNMENT
Since 1990, the U.S. government has published 10-year national objectives for improving the health of Americans. A select group of 26 objectives is monitored periodically and published on the Healthy People website. The most recent science-based goals, Healthy People 2020, were published in 2010 and expanded the goals to four major areas:
General health status
Health-related quality of life and well-being
Determinants of health
Disparities
Summarize the LHI-Leading Health Indicators: Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity and discuss possible data sources for this information, and explain why you think there has been a lack of progress.
