The NC Prevention Report Card grades North Carolina on how well it supports residents in being healthy. The Report Card monitors NC’s successes in prevention as well as shining a spotlight those areas that need more attention and investment. Grades are based on how easy it is for North Carolinians to quit tobacco, eat healthy, and get more physical activity.

• In 2009, NCPP will issue local report cards on five counties of the Sandhills region. Stay tuned for more.
