We are a 501(c)(3) organization that is an outgrowth of a 1976 Citizens' Conference on Public Health.  Conference participants expressed a strong need for citizen participation in public health and recommended the formation of a group or organization to promote citizens' involvement.  Thus the North Carolina Citizens for Public Heath was born. 

What NCCPH Offers Public Health
