Effective planning and decision-making for improving the health of a community requires good information about current health status and factors that will influence that health status. This document identifies the metrics -- the population health outcomes and important risk and protective factors -- that, when taken together, can describe the health of a community and drive action. Selection of these metrics reflects the weight of professional and academic judgment over the past three decades.
