CDDF Regional Representatives Committee

Regional Representatives Committee

The Regional Representatives Committee is comprised of 10 members who serve as the point of contact for each National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP) region. Committee members collect Chronic Disease Director input, feedback, and perspectives on the management and leadership of coordinated chronic disease prevention and health promotion and communicate this information to their peers, CDC, NACDD, and other partners. The Committee serves as a formal committee of the NACDD Board of Directors, strengthening timely communication between member groups.

The Committee has Operating Guidelines that guide its work and engagement. Committee Members serve two-year terms. Meetings are held quarterly and allow for discussion of pressing topics selected by members, CDC, and/or NACDD.
