One of the objectives of Healthy People 2010 I can help meet is to increase the rate of high school completion. I can do this by keeping my grades up and graduating from high school. I can help other people achieve this objective by helping them with their schoolwork. Another objective that I can help achieve is to reduce pedestrian fatalities by being very careful when I walk. I can help others achieve this objective by urging them to be careful when I walk with them.
