Choose one of the topics and a specific objective from Healthy People 2020 and develop a 5-6 page paper in length excluding title and reference page. The paper will describe the selected Healthy People 2020 topic and the specific objective (including target/goal, progress that has been made since Healthy People 2010 if applicable). The paper should address health implications, current interventions/activities, how to address health promotion behaviors. It is important to address the significance of this topic to nursing; explain nursing’s role/potential role. APA format is required. Students must use at least five 3 peer reviewed journal references from a nursing journal. Students may use a non-nursing journal as long as the first author of the article is a nurse. All references must be from the past five years (you may use the Healthy People 2020 website, however, you need to identify and utilize the additional nursing peer reviewed nursing journal references). Students should review the grading rubric outlining the required format and grading criteria.
