The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) is a public health association for chronic disease program directors of each state and U.S. territory. Since its founding in 1988, NACDD has been a national leader in the effort to reduce chronic diseases by mobilizing its members to advocate for preventive policies and programs, encourage knowledge sharing and develop model partnerships for health promotion through state and community-based prevention strategies.

Welcome to the School Health Council web site. We hope this site provides you with information that enhances the work you are currently doing with schools in your state. Our vision is a country where every school community actively supports healthy lifestyles so that:

  * All school age children and youth are healthy and ready-to-learn

  * All members of the school community live with reduced risk of chronic disease

  * Every school creates a legacy of health for future generations

If you are not already a member, join us. Voting membership is open to the School Health designee from each state, territory, district, commonwealth, or tribal organization as designated by your Chronic Disease Director. However, other members from the state can participate in the Council as long as they are a general or associate member of NACDD. If you or someone in your state is interested in participating just let us know and we can add them to our e-mail distribution list.  Contact Amy Greene at greene@chronicdisease.org.
