About Health Promotion Council

Health Promotion Council (HPC) is a nonprofit corporation, formed in 1981, whose mission is to promote health, and prevent and manage chronic diseases, especially among vulnerable populations, through community based outreach, education, and advocacy. In 1999, the organization joined Public Health Management Corporation (PHMC), Pennsylvania’s Public Health Institute, as an affiliate to strengthen its work in the public health sector. Through partnerships, HPC convenes and fosters collaboration among community‐based organizations, government, public health professionals, health systems, and community residents.

About National Association of Chronic Disease Directors 

The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) works to improve the health of the public by strengthening the state-based leadership and expertise for chronic disease prevention and control in states and at the national level. NACDD’s mission is national in scope, but the reach of NACDD goes beyond State Health Departments (SHD) into the communities and through partners working in local health departments, universities, other non-profit organizations, and other representatives who have self-identified as part of the chronic disease prevention workforce. A 501(c)3 non-profit organization, NACDD is a capacity building organization and for almost 30 years, has been providing support and technical assistance to SHDs, including territorial health departments. NACDD links more than 7,000 diverse, multi-disciplinary members in a network to promote national priorities, and prevention policies and programs; encourage knowledge sharing; and develop partnerships for promoting health.
