Office of Healthy Carolinians
Mary Bobbitt-Cooke,

The Office of Healthy Carolinians was established in 1992
upon the recommendation of the Governor’s Task Force on Health Objectives
for the year 2000. To date, 54 counties have established local Healthy
Carolinians task forces, of which 39 are certified, and 23 other counties
are in the planning stage. These local task forces share the common mission
of improving the health and safety of citizens of North Carolina. The
local task forces serve as the umbrella for all programs to assure effective
use of resources, building a community’s consensus to mobilize and
respond to health risks and establishing public/private partnerships.
