This post describes how K-State Research and Extension, a Healthy People 2030 Champion, contributed to progress toward Healthy People 2020 objectives—as well as Healthy People 2030 objectives under the social determinants of health domain Economic Stability.

Contemporary approaches to healthy living, with an increasing attentiveness to social determinants of health and the Vital Conditions for Health and Well-Being, hold potential — even real promise — to provide us with longer and greater-quality lives, especially through our later years. Focusing and sustaining meaningful action in support of that potential — that promise — requires a broader perspective on healthy aging and an open and inclusive conversation on the subject.

We know that improving health, eliminating health disparities, and advancing health equity requires coordination and collaboration with organizations nationwide. That’s why we’re excited to invite you to become a Healthy People 2030 Champion!
