comments will become part of the
meeting summary.
Background on the CPSTF: The
CPSTF is an independent, nonfederal
panel whose members are appointed by
the CDC Director. CPSTF members
represent a broad range of research,
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 health, 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 of
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
meets 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 The Community Guide.
Matters proposed for discussion: The
agenda will consist of deliberation on
systematic reviews of literature and is
open to the public. Topics will include
Nutrition, Physical Activity, and
Obesity and Health Equity/Social
Determinants of Health. Information
regarding the start and end times for
each day, and any updates to agenda
topics, will be available on the
Community Guide website
(www.thecommunityguide.org) closer to
the date of the meeting.
The meeting agenda is subject to
change without notice.
Dated: January 5, 2021.

Executive Secretary, Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention.
