Healthy People 2030 Objectives for the Nation: The Employer’s Challenge and How Research Can Inform Practice

The recently released Healthy People 2030 report is a “widely accessible plan containing achievable goals and objectives that can guide the action of individuals, communities, and stakeholders to improve health.” This session describes how businesses can support and benefit from the plan and summarizes recent research that informs the plan and our field. This panel also offers lessons learned from the extraordinary collaboration needed to find consensus on ambitious but attainable goals. The report notes, “It is essential to involve, as active partners, diverse stakeholders from across the public, private, and nonprofit sectors … and to share high-quality data and feedback on progress with stakeholders and the public.” This session aims to do just that!
