The North Carolina Asthma Program strives to reduce the burden of asthma upon the citizens of our state by:

  • Developing and maintaining a comprehensive statewide asthma surveillance system.
  • Developing and implementing a State Asthma Plan that effectively addresses asthma in all ages, ethnic groups, backgrounds, and in multiple settings.
  • Increasing public awareness of the importance of reducing the burden of asthma and the need for supportive policies and environments.
  • Providing technical assistance and resources to help support local asthma coalitions.
  • Providing leadership and administration for the statewide asthma coalition, the Asthma Alliance of North Carolina (AANC).
