Illinois Administrative Code › Title 77 - PUBLIC HEALTH › Part 600 - CERTIFIED LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT CODE › Subpart A - GENERAL › Section 600.100 - Statement of Purpose

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) This
				Part has been developed by the Illinois Department of Public Health, in
				collaboration with the Illinois Association of Public Health Administrators,
				the Illinois Association of Boards of Health, the Illinois Public Health
				Association, and the University of Illinois School of Public Health. This Part
				sets forth requirements for local health departments to be certified by the
				Department and applies to all local health departments in the State that are
				conducting or intend to conduct and complete such requirements.
b) The Department is committed to the mission
				of public health - to fulfill society's interest in assuring conditions in
				which people can be healthy. Because of this commitment, the Department has the
				responsibility to assure that quality public health services are delivered to
				Illinois citizens. Where possible, it is in the best interest of Illinois
				citizens to have public health services delivered at the local level by a local
				health department. A certified local health department is a local governmental
				agency that carries out the core functions of public health, assessment, policy
				development, and assurance, within its jurisdiction. Any local health
				department currently recognized by the Department will be eligible to seek
				certification. Performance of the core public health functions is the unique
				feature that distinguishes a certified local health department from any other
				public health provider in a local area. The practice standards, included in
				this Part, are activities that demonstrate a local health department is
				fulfilling the core functions of public health.
c) Certification is an eligibility
				requirement for Local Health Protection Grants awarded by the Department. The
				Department will make other Department grants available to certified local
				health departments, and the Department will give preference to certified local
				health departments for certain grants.
