Community Collaborative

Welcome to Our Community! 

The Community Collaborative is a collective that centers the voice and perspective of community partners so that DOH practices, programs and policies reduce health inequities and improve health outcomes for Black, Indigenous, communities of color and all those facing harm due to systemic racism and oppression.   

The Community Collaborative is open to everyone, however at the center are the leadership and staff of Community-Based Organizations (CBOs). We prioritize and center communities most impacted by health inequities, honoring their labor and voices in our decision-making process, while simultaneously creating space to foster collaboration with staff and leadership of public health agencies. 

Please explore the site to learn more about our workgroups, newsletter, and meetings.  

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback, we would love to connect. Contact the lead for the Community Collaborative or email our team at Community.Collaborative@doh.wa.gov.
