Addressing and Dismantling Inequities of Vulnerable Populations

Health care in the United States continues efforts to dismantle a system that disadvantages those from vulnerable and marginalized populations. Healthy People 2030 aims to improve health and well-being over the next decade with attention to health conditions, health behaviors, populations, settings and systems, and social determinants of health that impact at-risk groups. Health equity, health literacy, and social determinants of health are priority areas of concern for the US Department of Health and Human Services.
