As part of NPAIHB’s Public Health Improvement & Training (PHIT) overarching project, the Oregon Tribal Public Health Modernization (OPTHM) works with public health programs at the Oregon Tribes and NARA Northwest to provide support and technical assistance in developing, updating, and implementing public health action plans across foundational public health capabilities and programs. The participating OPTHM Tribes and Urban Indian Health Center (UIHC) are directly supported by funding from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA):

  • Burns Paiute Tribe
  • Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua & Siuslaw Indians
  • Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde
  • Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians
  • Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation
  • Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs
  • Coquille Indian Tribe
  • Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians
  • Klamath Tribes
  • N.A.R.A Northwest

In addition to individually tailored support through regular calls and site visits, an active OPTHM Community of Practice (CoP) offers opportunities for in-person collaboration, resource-sharing, and training.
