The Oregon Center for Environmental Health has organized a region-wide network of "Champions" to participate in Northwest Hospitals for a Healthy Environment (NW H2E). Champions are organizations that will assist health care facilities in achieving the national H2E goals by providing outreach, education and technical support to health care facilities. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ), Alaska Community Action on Toxics (ACAT), and the Northwest Pollution Prevention Resource Center (PPRC) in Washington will join the Center and EPA as "Champions" of this regional program.
