The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and the Healthy People 2030 websites will be useful.

Write a second paragraph explaining the relationship among the chosen SDOH, the U.S. population, and the population where you live.
Healthy People 2030 list five key areas of SDOH: (a) Economic Stability; (b) Education Access and Quality; (c) Social and Community Context; (d) Health Care Access and Quality; and (e) Neighborhood and Built Environment.  Using some of the resources provided to you in Instructional Materials, as well as at least 1 scholarly journal article, write one paragraph describing/explaining social determinants of health. Choose the SDOH that you feel most strongly about and explain why you find this SDOH to be so impactful to the overall health of populations in the U.S. Give an example of a specific population within the U.S. that is heavily impacted by this SDOH. Remember to focus on the United States in this discussion board.
