Art of Caring at White Memorial Hospital

Healing-centered care is essential to achieving health equity, a core value and impact area for PHS. Health care providers often seek our support in exploring what constitutes culturally-relevant care in the communities they serve and designing responsive programs. With our partners at Adventist Health White Memorial Hospital, PHS applied human-centered design to the development and pilot of an OB/GYN medical education curriculum to support healing-centered care.

United Way Bay Area Sparkpoint Toolkit Pilot Evaluation

SparkPoint Centers are community centers designed to support students and families in achieving academic success and housing and economic stability. PHS and partner Cindy J. Wong Consulting were engaged by United Way Bay Area to complete a participatory evaluation of the SparkPoint Toolkit. The final Toolkit is being used by colleges and universities statewide to support equitable pathways to prosperity for their students.

Oregon Human Trafficking Vignettes Project

PHS collaborated with Oregon Department of Justice Trafficking Response and Intervention Program (TRIP) on a community intervention to respond to human trafficking. The TRIP team worked with survivors, advocates, and service providers to compile their stories. PHS in turn designed story cards and a facilitator’s guide to make the stories accessible. The materials are being used to train service providers who engage with survivors of sex trafficking.
