Campaign Uncovered: Community Shield Champions in Umatilla County Oregon

Jul 28, 2025 | Guest Author

Written by: Paula Lamas, Communications Coordinator, Lexie Futter, Clinic Nursing Supervisor, Umatilla County Health, Oregon

Over the past six months, we have developed a podcast as part of our ongoing project in collaboration with NACCHO. The podcast was created to introduce and highlight the work being done through this partnership, with a focus on public health initiatives at the community level. 

We are excited to share this podcast on our public YouTube channel to further our mission of outreach and education. The podcast serves as both a communication tool and a record of progress, showcasing the achievements and insights gained during the past six months of collaboration with NACCHO.
