Between October 18–21, this website will move to a new web address (from health.gov to odphp.health.gov). During that time, some functions might not work as expected. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we’re working to make this transition as smooth as possible.

Priority Areas

Healthy People 2030 has a strong focus on eliminating health disparities and creating equitable opportunities for people to live healthy lives. Join us as we work to advance health equity, increase health literacy, and address social determinants of health in communities across the nation.

How does Healthy People 2030 advance health equity?

Health equity has been a focus of Healthy People since the initiative began, and our commitment to eliminating health disparities has only strengthened over time. That’s why we provide information, actionable tools, and evidence-based resources to help individuals, organizations, and communities advance health equity.
