The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) is the voice of nearly 3,000 local health departments (LHD) across the country providing resources to help LHD leaders develop public health policies and programs to ensure that communities have access to the vital programs and services people need to keep them protected from disease and disaster. Additionally, NACCHO advocates on behalf of LHDs with federal policymakers for adequate resources, appropriate public health legislation, and sensible policies to address the myriad of challenges facing communities.
NACCHO, with support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is pleased to offer a funding opportunity for a consultant to lead efforts to update criteria elements and support continuous quality improvement for Project Public Health Ready (PPHR), a public health preparedness criteria-based, recognition program that assesses a local health department’s capacity and capability to plan for, respond to, and recover from public health emergencies. PPHR aims to protect the public’s health and strengthen the public health infrastructure by equipping local health departments with sustainable tools to plan, train, and exercise using a continuous quality improvement model.
