Chronic Disease Prevention Program

The Health Department’s Chronic Disease Prevention Program works to help Allegheny County residents prevent, detect, and manage chronic conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and cancer.

In addition to education and outreach, we also use all available resources to track chronic disease trends across the county.
