Community Partnerships
Working Together to Help All Reach Their Full Wellness Potential
We believe in the power of partnerships. To improve the health of Wallowa County and to empower you, we cannot do it alone. Health is not just being physically, mentally, and spiritually well and seeing a doctor regularly. It also means having access to reliable transportation, safe, secure housing, access to healthy foods, accessible natural places and recreation, and social outlets. We work with community partners to make sure all aspects of health are being addressed in our community. And to help you!
If lack of secure, safe housing is making it hard for you to address your anxiety, that’s a problem. We will work with our community partners to find a solution so you can begin to heal. Yet beyond the immediate fix, we work with partners to address long-term solutions to improve the health of Wallowa County as a whole.
