NC FOUNDATIONAL CAPABILITIES INITIATIVES
Accountability & Performance Management
North Carolina Accountability and Performance Management (APM) initiatives help governmental public health agencies improve the quality of their local services. APM is organized under two primary initiatives:
-
Creating a Culture of Quality Improvement
-
Aligning Reporting Requirements
CULTURE OF QUALITY IMPROVEMENT
Culture of Quality Improvement Session
Explore how to expand your agency’s culture from compliance-focused to one of continuous quality improvement (CQI). In this 90-minute, interactive virtual session, discover real-world examples, practical tools, and unique ideas on how to integrate CQI into your daily tasks and organizational culture.
REPORTING ALIGNMENT RESOURCES
Aligning Reporting Requirements Session
North Carolina governmental public health is subject to many reporting requirements. Reporting Alignment Resources help identify statewide opportunities to align requirements while making it easier for local health departments to understand these requirements.
REPORTING ALIGNMENT RESOURCES

Download the Reporting Alignment Crosswalk (Excel), updated in March 2026, which provides a guide for managing upcoming accreditation transitions between new and old NCLHDA activities – including references to the Foundational Public Health Services, PHAB measures, and NCDPH Agreement Addendum requirements.

QUALITY IMPROVEMENT SUCCESS STORIES
Quality improvement looks different in each agency. By sharing real-world examples, we can help each other see what a culture of QI looks like in action. See our flyer for more information.
