HBRFSS and HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020

Healthy People is a nation-wide program of the United States Department of Health and Human Services. It provides the science-based, 10-year national objectives for improving the health of all Americans.
The first goals were set in 1979. They were subsequently updated in Healthy People 2000, Healthy People 2010 and the newest: Healthy Peple 2020 (HP2020).

Information provided by BRFSS cannot cover all the objectives of HP2020 but we have many questions related to some topics of HP2020.
With the information from 2011 BRFSS, let's take a look at where the state of Hawaii is on the way to achieve HP2020 goals.
