Land acknowledgement
Together, we acknowledge, with humility, the indigenous peoples whose presence permeates the waterways, shorelines, valleys, and mountains of the Olympic region. The land where we are is the territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, in particular the Chimacum, Hoh, Makah, S’Klallam, Suquamish, and Quileute tribes on whose sacred land we live, work, and play.

Board of Directors
The OCH Board of Directors consists of leaders from tribal nations and health sectors in our region. Together they strive to steward a participatory process to identify the greatest areas of need and align resources and services to achieve the highest attainable level of health and well-being for all community members.
