National Association of Chronic Disease Directors

Member

Founded in 1988, the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) is a national, nonprofit, professional Association that works to improve public health by strengthening state-based leadership and expertise for chronic disease prevention and control in State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Health Departments. The Association provides a national forum for chronic disease and health promotion professionals. NACDD’s core membership is composed of the 59 State and Territorial Health Department Chronic Disease Directors and their staff who protect the health of the public through primary and secondary prevention efforts and work “upstream” on root causes of chronic conditions. In addition, NACDD unites 7,000 chronic disease professionals across the United States working in state, tribal, and territorial health departments, nonprofits, academia, and the private industry to promote health and to reduce the burden of chronic disease. Please visit NACDD website at https://chronicdisease.org.
