What We Need:
The Oregon Primary Care Association (OPCA) seeks a Health Access Manager who is responsible for coordinating and handling day-to-day activities for HIV/STI programs in Oregon and SW Washington that align with Oregon’s End HIV initiative and training topics related to linkage to care supporting whole person health in the prevention and management of HIV as a chronic condition.

Who We Are:
OPCA is a nonprofit membership association for all of Oregon’s community health centers (CHCs), also known as federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). Our mission is to lead the transformation of primary care to achieve healthcare for all through our values of data-driven integrity, collaboration, and innovation. The HIV/STI Program delivers innovative, evidence-based, education and training programs to improve both access to care and quality of life for people who are living with or are at-risk for acquiring HIV.
To accomplish our shared goals, we support health centers and key partners by facilitating peer network gatherings, trainings, site visits, learning collaboratives, and data-driven improvement projects. In addition, we work with policymakers and partners to share the impact health centers have in their communities and advance policy to improve patients’ lives and the ability of health centers to serve them.
OPCA celebrates both individual contributions and powerful teamwork. We support one another as healthy human beings who balance work with the rest of life. Join our team to advance OPCA’s mission of health access for all, as we lead the community health center movement with passion, vision and courage.
Who You Are:
A highly skilled facilitator with a demonstrated ability to speak to large crowds and diverse audiences in an interprofessional environment, you thrive when managing multiple initiatives and prioritizing competing training demands across the state. Your understanding of epidemiologic and survey data supports program efforts and allows you to measure program success. Your ability to think strategically and deliver technically allows you to combine an understanding of high level organizational and team goals with an impeccable attention to detail in your daily work. As a collaborative relationship builder, you work closely with your team and other thought partners.

Leading the transformation of primary care to achieve health care access for all
OPCA is a non-profit membership association of Oregon’s 34 Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), including two FQHC Look-Alikes. The organization’s mission is to lead the transformation of primary care to achieve health equity for all. OPCA provides technical assistance, training and policy support to health centers. In addition to providing support to help health centers meet core federal and state requirements, OPCA partners with health centers to advance the goals of health system transformation: better health, better care, lower costs and health equity. Oregon’s CHCs deliver integrated medical, dental and behavioral health services to many of the state’s most vulnerable communities through over 200 locations statewide. Over 433,000 Oregonians receive their care at a community health center, including one in four people on the Oregon Health Plan. Over 73% of our patients live below the poverty line, and 94% live at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level. Challenges such as poverty and homelessness, cultural and language barriers, rural or social isolation, and chronic mental illness often have a significant impact on our patients’ health. In addition to helping health centers provide high quality integrated medical, dental and behavioral health care, much of our work involves helping providers better understand the circumstances of their patients’ lives and address the social determinants of health as a major driver of health equity. Together with health centers across the state, we work to understand and help address the social determinants of health in the clinic, through community partnerships, and through our involvement in public policy.
