It really does take a village

OHN has received generous support from national and Oregon service providers in the form of reduced or in-kind donation of services, helping us work toward the vision of ensuring that every Oregon has access to the best possible care regardless of location. We attribute a great amount of our  success and momentum to date, to the experts and organizations to follow, and are therefore indebted for their profound support and partnership. We also encourage the community to reach out to these businesses if you should ever have a need for their services, and are happy to make a personal introduction when and if you need it.
