What is an Advanced Practice Center? Each Advanced Practice Center (APC) is a local health departmentone that has been tasked with addressing priorities in public health preparedness. APCs serve the public health community by: –providing tools and resources; –educational materials; – trainings; and –technical assistance to help public health practitioners address local preparedness challenges.

The History of the APCs In 2003, NACCHO, in coordination with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, awarded five local health departments the opportunity to serve as Advanced Practice Centers. Additional sites were selected and funded in 2004; in 2006, an APC was added to serve as the national model for rural public health. For a listing of current APC sites, visit

APCs Address Many Topic Areas Vulnerable Populations Biosurveillance Radiological Response Environmental Health Food Safety Mutual Aid Public Education Rural Health Personal Preparedness Risk Communication Mass Dispensing Pandemic Influenza Mass Fatality Volunteers Workforce Development
