The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is an organization at the forefront of lowering and containing costs, improving quality, and increasing access to health care to improve the lifelong health of Oregonians. OHA’s strategic goal is to eliminate health inequities in Oregon by 2030.

The OHA mission is helping people and communities achieve optimum physical, mental, and social well-being through partnership, prevention and access to quality, affordable health care. OHA’s work is organized into three broad goals: Improve the lifelong health of all Oregonians, increase the quality, reliability, and availability of care for all Oregonians and lower or contain the cost of care so it is affordable to everyone.

The Oregon Public Health Division (PHD) works to protect and promote the health of all people in Oregon and the communities where we live, work, play and learn. Many division-wide initiatives have been developed to keep the PHD accountable to help us achieve our mission, vision and goal of eliminating health inequities for all people in Oregon.

The Center for Prevention and Health Promotion houses community-oriented preventive clinical and community health services and supports the policy, systems and environmental changes that promote good health. This Center guides and supports healthy communities through data collection, analysis and reporting; by supporting the Governor's priorities around tobacco, http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/oars_100/oar_125/125_246.html http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/oars_100/oar_125/125_246.html obesity and early learning; and, by acting as a point of contact with the healthcare system on certain key clinical prevention practices. This center will work with many partners, including local public health, childcare facilities, schools, worksites, healthcare providers, transportation, and the private sector to ensure that we reduce preventable injury, illness, and death and promote good health.

The Family and Child Health (FCH) section monitors local, state, and national maternal child health data, identifies areas and trends creating health risks for Oregon’s families, and develops statewide policy and program infrastructure to improve the health and well-being of adult women, pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and young children. The section provides unique public health leadership in designing and implementing primary health prevention approaches from a population-based service perspective. Statewide programs within the section include Perinatal Health, Child Health, Oral Health, Oregon’s Maternal Infant, & Early Childhood Home Visiting program, as well as other State-led and locally implemented nurse home visiting programs. While the section focuses on reaching those in greatest need, the breadth of the policies and programs affect the health of all women, infants, and children in the state.
