practice, and policy expertise in
prevention, wellness, health promotion,
and public health. The CPSTF was
convened in 1996 by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) to
identify community preventive
programs, services, and policies that
increase healthy longevity, save lives
and dollars, and improve Americans’
quality of life. CDC is mandated to
provide ongoing administrative,

research, and technical support for the
operations of the CPSTF. During its
meetings, the CPSTF considers the
findings of systematic reviews on
existing research and practice-based
evidence and issues recommendations.
CPSTF recommendations are not
mandates for compliance or spending.
Instead, they provide information about
evidence-based options that decision
makers and stakeholders can consider
when they are determining what best
meet the specific needs, preferences,
available resources, and constraints of
their jurisdictions and constituents. The
CPSTF’s recommendations, along with
the systematic reviews of the evidence
on which they are based, are compiled
in the Guide to Community Preventive
Services (The Community Guide).
Matters proposed for discussion:
Cancer Prevention and Control
(Economics of Multicomponent
Interventions to Improve Cancer
Screening for Breast, Colorectal, and
Cervical Cancer); Health Equity
(proposal for housing interventions as a
new topic area); Obesity Prevention and
Control (Combined School-Based
Interventions to Increase Healthier Food
and Beverage Consumption and
Physical Activity); Women’s Health
(Primary Prevention of Intimate Partner
Violence and Sexual Violence Among
Youth); and discussion of Community
Guide economic methods. The agenda is
subject to change without notice.
