of the decade, establish national goals
and targets to be achieved by the year
2030, and monitor progress over time.
The U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) is soliciting the
submission of written comments
regarding three new objectives proposed
to be added to Healthy People 2030
since the initiative’s launch in August
2020. The public is also invited to
submit proposals for additional new
core, developmental, or research
objectives that meet the criteria outlined
below.
In addition, HHS is seeking evidencebased information regarding the
relationship between voter participation
and health as a measure of civic
engagement to support the Healthy
People social determinants of health
(SDOH) framework. Civic engagement is
a component of the Social and
Community Context domain of the
Healthy People SDOH framework.
Healthy People 2030 is the product of
an extensive collaborative process that
relies on input from a diverse array of
individuals and organizations, both
within and outside the federal
government, with a common interest in
improving the nation’s health. Public
comments were a cornerstone of
Healthy People 2030’s development.
During the first phase of planning for
Healthy People 2030, HHS asked for the
public’s comments on the initiative’s
vision, mission, and overarching goals.
Those comments helped set the
framework for Healthy People 2030. The
public was also invited to submit
comments on proposed Healthy People
2030 objectives, which helped shape the
current set of Healthy People 2030
objectives.
The public now is invited to comment
on three new objectives proposed to be
added to Healthy People 2030. These
new objectives were developed by
Healthy People topic area workgroups
led by various agencies within the
Federal Government. They have been
reviewed by the Federal Interagency
Workgroup on Healthy People 2030 and
are presented now for the public’s
review and comment. They are:
1. Disability and Health-NEW–06:
Increase the percentage of adults who
can resume 50 percent or more of
preinjury activities (with or without
supports) 5 years after receiving acute
inpatient rehabilitation for traumatic
brain injury. Data Source: Traumatic
Brain Injury Model Systems (TBIMS)
National Database.
2. Public Health Infrastructure-NEW–
08: Increase the proportion of tribal
communities that have developed a
health improvement plan. Data Source:

The public is also invited to propose
additional core, developmental, or
research objectives for consideration
that address critical public health
issues. Proposed new objectives must
meet all the objective selection criteria
(see below).
Objective Selection Criteria

Core objectives must meet the
following 5 criteria to be included in

2 additional data points beyond the
baseline during the decade; (3) be of
national importance; (4) have effective,
