Healthy Places, Healthy People
The Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention (HPCDP) Section's vision, mission and framework focus on best practices for promoting and supporting optimal health for all Oregonians.
HPCDP's programs are supported by funds from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Tobacco Control program is also funded with tobacco tax revenues designated by Ballot Measure 44 passed by Oregon voters in 1996. Currently, no state general fund revenues support these programs.
Vision
All people in Oregon live, work, play and learn in communities that support health and optimal quality of life.
Mission
To advance policies, environments and systems that promote health and prevent and manage chronic diseases.
