Caring for the whole person in body, mind, and spirit is at the heart of our mission. We’re pleased to welcome Tony Hunter as ’s new Director of Mission Integration.
Tony brings 10 years of chaplaincy experience, along with a background in pastoral ministry, teaching, and graphic design. This unique blend shapes his thoughtful, creative approach to spiritual care and mission leadership.
He’s passionate about building a future-ready spiritual care department while staying deeply connected to our patients and team members, and partnering across the organization to foster a culture of compassion, meaning, and purpose.
Outside of work, Tony enjoys time with his wife, Nirma, and their three-year-old daughter, Amryn. We’re excited to welcome Tony to the Avista team and look forward to his leadership.
