2020 – Decade of Health & Wellness

2020 was declared the decade of Health and Wellness by the US Department of Health and Human Services as part of the Healthy People 2020 initiative, which aimed to improve the nation’s health through a set of national health goals and objectives. Additionally, the UN Decade of Healthy Ageing 2021-2030 was declared, with a focus on promoting health and well-being for older adults. These initiatives reflect a broader commitment to enhancing health and wellness across various sectors over the decade. It is the goal of ABQ Health & Wellness to be focused on the combination of those initiatives.
