Mission & Focus Areas

The foundation aims to advance whole-person health by expanding access to behavioral health care in underserved communities. Its 2022–2026 strategy includes three areas: Resilient Children and Families, serving pregnancy through age 8; Healthy and Connected Aging, serving adults age 55 and older; and Health Care Workforce, including paid and unpaid caregivers. Its website describes behavioral health as including mental health and substance use, across prevention, intervention, recovery, and support.

The foundation also reports investing $65 million since 2007 to advance palliative care access, awareness, and quality. This includes the Sojourns Scholar Leadership Program, which aims to develop future palliative care leaders.

The foundation’s 2024 grants illustrate the range of organizations it has supported. Cascade AIDS Project describes its work as providing inclusive health and wellness services for LGBTQ+ people, people affected by HIV, and others seeking compassionate care. Greater New Hope Charities says it collaborates with BIPOC community members to improve health equity and economic stability in East County. Oregon Latino Health Coalition says it advances Latino health through policy, advocacy, and prevention. These are the grantees’ descriptions of their own missions.
