APA Style 7th Edition

 

Links to style guides:

Healthy People 2030 is more of a government report than a website, so when you cite a specific topic in Healthy People 2030, you are essentially citing a section of a report. The name of the overall report is Healthy People 2030, which is italicized, and the section of the report, Diabetes in the example below, is not italicized. See an example on the APA Style website and the USC Libraries APA Style guide.

 

This is just one way to cite Healthy People 2030.  Some may choose to cite topics in in Healthy People 2030 as a webpage on a website

 

Healthy People 2030

Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. (n.d.). Diabetes. Healthy People 2030. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. https://health.gov/healthypeople/objectives-and-data/browse-objectives/diabetes 

The first time you cite within the text:

 

Parenthetical (at the end of a sentence): (Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion [ODPHP], n.d.)

 

Narrative (at the beginning of a sentence): Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP, n.d.)

 

Then use the abbreviation every other time after: 

 

Parenthetical (at the end of a sentence): (ODPHP, n.d.) 

 

Narrative (at the beginning of a sentence): ODPHP (n.d.)

 

Publication date

  • When you can't determine the date of the publication, treat the work as having no date.
  • If the entry includes a publication date, include the date instead of n.d. (stands for no date).
  • The date refers to the publication date not the copyright date.
  • Do not make up a date if no publication date listed.
  • View rules for dates on this page of the APA Style website.
