Cancelled – 2020 Clinical Conference on Quality and Chronic Disease

– Conference Cancelled –

Most of you are aware that Governor Roy Cooper has declared a state of emergency in NC due to the likely impact of COVID-19. As an Association dedicated to the support of our members in providing irreplaceable care to patients across the state, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Clinical Conference that was scheduled for next month. We are disappointed to forego this annual opportunity to connect, learn, and grow with you, our valued members and partners, but prudence demands that first and foremost we follow the best guidance available to us to support your ability to care for our communities! 

Please be safe and thank you for all you do to care for our state.

Save the date for 2021! Next year’s CCQCD will be held April 7-9, 2021, in Durham, NC.

In highlighting the connection between oral and systemic health, the Foundation for Health Leadership and Innovation’s North Carolina Oral Health Collaborative is sponsoring the Janet Reaves Community Achievement Award.

Janet excelled at creating partnerships and helped champion innovative quality improvement initiatives that put North Carolina at the forefront in chronic disease management. Janet maintained a positive attitude, inspired others with her spirit and determination, and served as a role model and mentor to many—particularly those with a passion for serving the people of North Carolina.
