Racial and Ethnic Health Task Force
The Racial and Ethnic Health Task Force is the result of several years committed work by a group of dedicated people. The motivation for creating the Task Force was the recognition that persistent and significant health problems weaken Oregon's racial and ethnic communities much more than these same problems affect the population as a whole.
The findings of the Task Force will begin to solidify a role for state government in ending health disparities in Oregon.The ultimate goal is for all Oregonians to live in a state where equity in health programs is a basic and important human right that works effectively to end health disparities.
