A few weeks ago, the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) and Trust for America’s Health (TFAH) co-hosted the National Healthy Aging Symposium: Innovation Across the Age-Friendly Ecosystem. Recordings from the event are now available.

Earlier this year, staff from ODPHP, along with other federal partners at CDC and NIH, organized a listening session to identify key research areas that may help inform the third edition of the "Physical Activity Guidelines" (Guidelines). While the next edition of the Guidelines is not expected to be released until 2028, discussions among the global health and physical activity communities about what to include are already well underway. 

On Wednesday, September 25th the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion hosted its latest Healthy People 2030 webinar, “Healthy People 2030: Empowering Diabetes Prevention, Treatment, and Management.” A video of that webinar is now available for viewing.

HHS is seeking written comments on 12 proposed new objectives for Healthy People 2030. HHS invites members of the public — both individuals and organizations — to provide comments about the new objectives for HHS to consider.
