Progress Review

The purpose of Progress Reviews is to provide a venue for Federal agencies to report on progress toward achieving the Healthy People 2010 goals and objectives for each of the 28 focus areas. The review is a mechanism by which the lead agencies for a particular focus area brief the Assistant Secretary for Health on the latest data for the objectives and on advances made toward the targets. It presents an opportunity for HHS and other Federal agency representatives to discuss barriers that stand in the way of achieving the targets and challenges them to explore strategies for moving the Nation closer to meeting the goals for 2010. The Vision and Hearing Progress Review was held on October 20, 2004.
