HHS is seeking written comments on 12 proposed new objectives for Healthy People 2030. HHS invites members of the public — both individuals and organizations — to provide comments about the new objectives for HHS to consider.

Today, we are pleased to release a virtual toolkit with a collection of new resources that can support the growing numbers of health professionals who are implementing or developing Food Is Medicine initiatives around the country.
