Lower Columbia CAP Board, Children's Justice and Advocacy Center Board, Longview Homeless and Housing Task Force

Lower Columbia CAP and Children's Justice and Advocacy Boards, Longview Homeless and Housing Task Force member

For the past number of years the Board of Health has lacked focus and been embroiled in divisiveness and following the lure of false science, to the detriment of the health and safety of everyone in our community. If I am appointed to the Board of Health I plan to work collaboratively with fellow Board members and to consistently speak out in favor of science-based public health programs and practices.

I have been a foster parent, worked in group homes and mental health supported housing, and domestic violence advocacy. From 1982 until I retired in 2021 I served as CEO of Cowlitz Family Health Center. Since my retirement I have volunteered in the community, presented grant writing workshops, written grants, and conducted interviews for the University of Washington Parent Child Assistance Program.

I grew up in North Dakota and moved to the Pacific Northwest in 1969, then to Longview in 1982. Growing up I was exposed to the rich history and traditions of the Plains Indians and the shameful was we white people treated our indigenous neighbors. I am fortunate to be the descendant of immigrants and homesteaders and appreciate the struggles of those new to our country. I have been blessed to have known, worked with and befriended people from a variety of races, gender identities and ethnicities in my life

Do you have any personal or professional relationships, affiliations, or interests that could potentially conflict with your duties and responsibilities in this role? If so, please describe them.

Can you share how your professional expertise and personal experiences bring diverse perspectives to our team? How do you believe your background will contribute to our organization's goals and culture?

If you are applying for the Consumers of Public Health position: Do you identify with a historically underrepresented community? If yes, explain below.

Describe your demonstrated commitment to public health:

No. I am not a contractor or subcontractor with the County.

I have been fortunate in my life and my career in being able to work on projects and services with community members of all walks of life and those from diverse races, gender identities and ethnicities. I have demonstrated the ability to listen to individuals and groups that I may not have agreed with and to compromise and address their concerns in programs that I have developed. I have never met a person that I was unable to learn something from I believe my experience will contribute to common sense, compromise and collaborative discussions and actions by the Board of Health.

I have no fiduciary or other obligations to a health facility or other health agency. I do not hole any material financial interests in the rendering of health services.

I am caucasian and identify with the historically underrepresented community of women.

I have worked collaboratively with the health department during my tenure at Family Health Center. When the Health Department dropped provision of Sexually Transmitted Disease Clinic Services, and later dropped the Harm Reduction

Program Family Health Center's Board was supportive of my offering to preserve those programs in the community.
