Community Engagement
The community engagement team supports education communities in addressing the critical connection between equity and well-being. We do this by centering the current needs and priorities of Oregon education employees who have been historically excluded from participating in decisions that impact their well-being.
Our work includes creating opportunities for connecting, raising awareness at Oregon education events and conferences, supporting affinity spaces, and cultivating relationships with those committed to shifting culture and enhancing education employee well-being. Effective wellness programs can help employees take better care of themselves and foster resilience to buffer the negative effects of stress. Let’s work together to bring well-being to your organization.
Who We Center
While Oregon Well-Being Trust is dedicated to the well-being, safety and belonging of every education employee in Oregon, our community engagement strategy is specifically focused on uplifting the needs, interests, and gifts of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) educators, those who identify as LGBTQ+, education employees with disabilities, and classified staff.

“ A day for educators to focus on well-being provided such an important message and experience. It was truly amazing – unlike any opportunity we’ve had before. You provided a beautiful and safe place to relax and learn.”
