University of Phoenix Public Health Program Planning Paper

Many states align public health initiatives to the national Healthy People 2020 Leading Health Indicators. California does not directly participate in Healthy People unless required for reporting but instead has a similar program called Let’s Get Healthy California.

Select one Let’s Get Healthy California goal and indicator to explore.

Evaluate whether the goal was met based on the information in the California Health and Human Services open data portal.

Determine if there is evidence of alignment to the Let’s Get Healthy California goals in your community. Evidence might include local programs and funding.

Explain the evidence by providing links, a description, and summary of the program(s).
