Healthy New Hampshire 2010 is New Hampshire's first disease prevention and health promotion agenda. The foundation of the Healthy New Hampshire plan has been a collaborative effort of New Hampshire leaders and citizens under the direction of the Healthy New Hampshire Leadership Council.
The objectives of the Healthy NH 2010 plan provide healthcare providers and consumers with a framework for healthy living. Policies and preventive interventions inspired by Healthy New Hampshire 2010 can reduce the burden of illness, enhance quality of life and increase longevity in the 21st century. A critical component of these policies and interventions is the elimination of disparities that are too often a roadblock in achieving health. New Hampshire joins the national Healthy People 2010 effort to promote a healthy life for all its citizens and has an ambitious agenda to ensure our message excludes none.
