Now it is your turn to consider what is causing health disparities for a health issue. Review the health disparities section of Healthy People 2020. Then,

  • Select a health topic of interest from the list of Healthy People 2020 topics and objectives (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014b) and review the information about how this health concern affects different populations.
  • Discuss the notable health disparities for this health concern between one or more populations
