Introduction to the Healthy People Initative
The Healthy People initiative identifies public health priorities to assist individuals, organizations, and
communities across the United States to improve health and well-being. It provides 10-year, measurable
objectives and tools to track progress toward achievement (Healthy People, n.d.).
First developed in 1979, Healthy People 2030 is the fifth narration and builds upon the knowledge gained
over the first four decades.

Type of
Objective Description
Core Measurable objectives that are associated with 10-year targets.
Developmental Objectives that represent high-priority public health issues but do not yet have reliable baseline data.
Research Objectives that represent public health issues with a high health or economic burden or significant
disparities between population groups but are not yet associated with evidence-based interventions.
Your response is correct!
The major difference between Healthy People 2020 and 2030 is an increased focus on health

In 1979, Surgeon General Julius Richmond issued a landmark report titled “Healthy People: The
Surgeon General’s Report on Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.” Then, in 1980, the
Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion released Healthy People 1990, which was
followed in later decades by new iterations of the Healthy People initiative, each building on
the last (Healthy People, n.d.). Go through the timeline below using the arrows on either side
