The Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Agriculture (USDA) appreciate all the individuals and organizations that submitted nominations to serve on the 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (Committee).

This past week, HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra had the pleasure of swearing in two new co-chairs of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition (PCSFN). Culinary Innovator, educator, and humanitarian José Andrés and WNBA Player and Olympic Gold Medalist Elena Delle Donne were both appointed this spring by the President to two-year terms. This past week, they took the oath of their office in a small ceremony at HHS headquarters in Washington, DC.

We know that improving health, eliminating health disparities, and advancing health equity requires coordination and collaboration with organizations nationwide. That’s why we’re excited to invite you to become a Healthy People 2030 Champion!
