To attain high-quality, longer lives free of preventable disease, 
disability, injury, and premature death; to achieve health equity, 
eliminate disparities, and improve the health of all groups; to create 
social and physical environments that promote good health for all; and 
to promote quality of life, healthy development, and health behaviors 
across all life stages. HP2020 consists of over 1200 objectives 
organized under 42 topic areas.
    Likely Respondents: Healthy People State Coordinators, State Health 
Department Senior Deputy Directors, local and tribal health 
organizations, Healthy People Consortium organizations, and Healthy 
People webinar attendees.
