OHSU Health Services is committed to the ongoing journey of being an anti-racist organization that acknowledges the enduring impacts of historical injustices on health; addresses clinical, social, and structural systems and conditions that undermine health and wellness; strives to become a culturally-proficient workplace that reflects the communities served; and fosters an environment of belonging, respect, and inclusion where everyone feels empowered and safe to bring their full, authentic selves to the work. Change requires individuals at all levels of the organization to be proactive in redistributing resources and power equitably by restructuring policies, clinical and financial strategies, culturally sensitive data analysis and the way data is used. OHSU Health unequivocally expects its staff and leadership to fully support this mission in these efforts.
