Community Engagement

What is community engagement?

Our Community Engagement Initiative increases access to health care for Oregonians with disabilities through partnerships with the disability community and health care infrastructure throughout Oregon. The process begins with a Town Hall Meeting where people with disabilities and their families can talk about what changes they would like to see in their community. The OODH takes those ideas to doctors, other providers of health care and the local government to see how the issues might be resolved. Finally, the OODH works with all of these groups to find solutions that everyone can commit to.
