JEFFERSON CITY, MO – Missouri collaborating organizations are pleased to be recognized by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as a Healthy People 2030 Champion.

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services’ (DHSS) Comprehensive Cancer Control Program, DHSS Show-Me Healthy Women and the University of Missouri Cancer Registry and Research Center are included in this honor.

“ODPHP recognizes DHSS’ Comprehensive Cancer Control Program, Show-Me Healthy Women and Missouri Cancer Registry for their work to support the Healthy People 2030 vision,” says RADM Paul Reed, MD, ODPHP director. “Only by collaborating with partners nationwide can we achieve our overarching goals and objectives.”

As Healthy People 2030 Champions, these organizations have demonstrated commitments to helping people achieve their full potential for health and well-being across their lifespan. ODPHP recognizes the Missouri DHSS Comprehensive Cancer Control Program, Show-Me Healthy Women and Missouri Cancer Registry, along with other Healthy People 2030 Champions, as part of a growing network of organizations collaborating with ODPHP to improve health and well-being at the local, state, and tribal level.
