Resources

NACCHO''s Chronic Disease Prevention Project has collaborated with national organizations and the CDC''s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion in an effort to connect local and state public health practitioners with publications, tools, and other resources related to chronic disease prevention and health promotion.

NACCHO welcomes any tools or resources you would like to share with local health departments. To submit a tool to the Chronic Disease Prevention Toolkit, please contact Camillia Easley.

The Alliance to Reduce Disparities in Diabetes has issued a set of health policy considerations based on the real-world experience of five local diabetes intervention programs. The policy considerations offer ideas for delivery system and health care financing reforms that could bring about significant reductions in health care disparities among people with diabetes.

 NACCHO and the LHDs that participated in the Diabetes Today training program have produced a number of resources for use by local diabetes prevention and management coalitions.
