2019 YEAR IN REVIEW ROUNDTABLE ON POPULATION HEALTH IMPROVEMENT VISION & MISSION The Roundtable’s vision is of a strong, healthy, and productive society that cultivates human capital and equal opportunity. This vision rests on the recognition that outcomes such as improved life expectancy, quality of life, and health for all are shaped by interdependent social, economic, environmental, genetic, behavioral, and health care factors. Altering these factors will require robust national and community-based actions and dependable resources to achieve them. To attain this vision, the Roundtable intends to facilitate sustainable collaborative action by a community of science- informed leaders in public health, health care, business, education, early childhood development, housing, agriculture, transportation, economic development, and non-profit and faith-based organizations. MEMBERS The Roundtable brings together approximately 30 members from academia, philanthropy, health care, government—including public health—and non-profit organizations. More information about members, including those w ho represent sponsoring organizations, is available on the roundtable w eb page.
