Put simply, we work to ensure our health plan members and communities have access to the care and support they want and need. One way we do this is by providing grants and other types of impact funds to many of the clinical and community organizations that make up the health care system and social safety net in our region.
We support existing and emerging programs that are guided by evidence-based and/or best practices. Our local partnerships help advance our vision of building equitable and sustainable access to quality health care and community services.
We look to the people who live and work in our communities to tell us what they need to be healthy. And we invest accordingly. We pay special attention to the voices of those who have historically faced the biggest barriers to care and opportunity.
In 2024, our Regional Community Advisory Council adopted our 2025-29 Regional Health Improvement Plan (RHIP), which will guide our work and investment decisions over the next five years. The plan’s priority areas are based on feedback from more than 1,300 residents of Clatsop, Columbia and Tillamook counties. Learn more about the plan and its community-identified priority areas:

SHARE (Supporting Health for All through Reinvestment) is a requirement that coordinated care organizations (CCOs) invest a portion of profits back into their communities to address social determinants of health and equity (SDOH-E). For details, see the Oregon Health Authority SHARE webpage. This summary does not reflect all CCO spending in the community or on SDOH-E.
Columbia Pacific CCO, with input from our Community Advisory Councils and Member Voice and Equity Committee, will annually create a set of Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for projects which will align with our Regional Health Improvement Plan priorities:
The RFPs will be posted and shared with strategic partners working in these areas as an invitation to apply. Once the RFPs are closed, the CACs will provide recommendations to Columbia Pacific CCO, who will make the final decision on awardees for the following calendar year.
Funding level: $500 to $2,500
Application window: January through December 2026
We sponsor regional events hosted by nonprofit community-based organizations that serve low-income residents of Clatsop, Columbia and/or Tillamook counties. Successful proposals will improve health training, awareness and/or outcomes related to our 2025-29 RHIP priority areas.
To apply, email communityinvestments@careoregon.org with your organization name, contact person, event description and date, reply date and sponsorship levels.
