National Organization for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to build on the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion’s (NCCDPHP) efforts to strengthen the capacity and capabilities of the states’ chronic disease prevention and health promotion public health workforce. This program is expected to result in adoption of evidence-based chronic disease prevention and health promotion approaches and effective use of public health tools and resources. This 5-year NOFO supports strengthening the leadership and expertise in the chronic disease prevention system domains in order to transform the practice of chronic disease prevention and health promotion in state health departments and accelerate improvements in population health. Focusing on the priorities and goals of the NCCDPHP, this program will support the development of effective state chronic disease programs through implementation of practice-based learning and leadership development strategies.
