Model Policies
The following policies were developed by the Chronic Disease Partners Model Policy Workgroup. The downloadable policies are evidence-based and may be adapted to fit your specific organization. Please refer to the contact person listed next to each policy for implementation technical assistance.
Enacting a policy alone doesn’t ensure that the policy will be successful. Often, additional steps are needed to implement the policy in a way that can increase the likelihood the policy will achieve its intended outcomes. The CDC Office of the Associate Director for Policy and Strategy developed a policy process guide to assist health partners.
