What is the National Public Health Performance Standards Program (NPHPSP)?
The NPHPSP is supported through a partnership of national public health organizations that have worked collaboratively to establish national performance standards. The standards identify the optimal level of performance for state and local public health systems (all organizations that contribute to public health in a given area) and governing bodies. The NPHPSP seeks to ensure that strong effective public health systems are in place to deliver essential public health services.
