CPSTF members represent a broad range of research, practice, and policy expertise in prevention, wellness, health promotion, and public health. The CPSTF was convened in 1996 by the Department of Health and Human Services

(HHS)to identify community preventive programs, services, and policies that increase healthy longevity, save lives and dollars, and improve Americans' quality of life. CDC is mandated to provide ongoing administrative, research, and technical support for the operations of the CPSTF. During its meetings, the CPSTF considers the findings of systematic reviews on existing research and practice-based evidence and issues recommendations. CPSTF recommendations are not mandates for compliance or spending. Instead, they provide information about evidence-based options that decision makers and stakeholders can consider when they are determining what best meet the specific needs, preferences, available resources, and constraints of their jurisdictions and constituents. The CPSTF's recommendations, along with the systematic reviews of the evidence on which they are based, are compiled in the *Guide to Community Preventive Services (The Community Guide).* *Matters proposed for discussion:* Mental Health (Effectiveness of School-Based Depression and Anxiety Prevention Interventions); Obesity Prevention and Control (Combined School-Based Diet and Physical Activity Interventions); Physical Activity (Effectiveness of Active Transportation to School Interventions); Women's Health (Exercise-based Interventions for Gestational Hypertension); and discussion of Community Guide effectiveness and economic methods. The agenda is subject to change without notice. *Roybal Campus Security Guidelines:* The Edward R. Roybal Campus is CDC's headquarters and is located at 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, Georgia. The meeting is being held in a Federal government building; therefore, Federal security measures are applicable. All meeting attendees must register by the dates outlined under *Meeting Accessibility.* In planning your arrival time, please take into account the need to park and clear security.
