What is the Prevention Agenda?

The Prevention Agenda is New York's State Health Improvement Plan (SHIP).

What is New About the 2025-2030 Prevention Agenda?

The 2025-2030 Prevention Agenda adopts a broad perspective, emphasizing factors that influence health beyond traditional health outcomes, prevention strategies, medical care, and public health systems.

Addressing these issues is crucial for reducing health disparities.

  1. Economic Stability
  2. Social and Community Context
  3. Neighborhood and Built Environment
