Review: the Healthy People 2020 Leading Health Indicators:

 https://www.healthypeople.gov/2020/Leading-Health-Indicators Select one leading health indicator and research a state-level health prevention program aimed at achieving it: https://www.healthypeople.gov/2020/healthy-people-in-action/State-and-Territorial-Healthy-People-Plans 

Locate: Florida state′s vital statistics and/or census data to compare the outcomes of the selected leading health indicator. Evaluate: the state-level program′s effectiveness in meeting the Healthy People 2020 goals based on your statistical and census data findings.

Determine: if there is evidence in your community of alignment to the Healthy People 2020 goals through local programs and funding. Explain: the evidence by providing links, a desсrіption, and summary of the program(s). FORMAT: 875 words APA 3 current references (not older than 5 years).

On a seperate document: Develop a graphical (FORMAT: CHART) representation showing the indicators of morbidity and mortality for the leading health indicator you selected for this week′s Public Health Program Planning assignment. List a minimum of five indicators and provide a rationale for each. Cite any gaps in programs to address the indicators. The two documents are intended to be associated with each other. For example, the five health indicators in the Week Three Practice Learning assignment need to be related to the health indicator chosen for the Public health Program Planning assignment.

This means that if a student chose the health indicator of tobacco use for the state level prevention assignment, the related health indicators to tobacco use can be used in the graph in the Practice leaning assignment, (i.e. heart disease, lung cancer, etc.). In this way, there needs to be a brief rationale for the association (i.e. tobacco use increases the risk of heart disease). The gaps in the programming relates to, for example, are there enough smoking bans, smoking cessation programs, etc. in the state. I attached both grading scale for the paper and one for the chart
