Learning and mentorship have the power to shape a child’s future and their health.

As part of National Minority Health Month, we’re highlighting the everyday factors that build healthier communities.

We are proud to support HOLLA school, a tuition-free public charter school located in the Rockwood community that provides a supportive learning environment for Black, Brown and Indigenous youth.

Through classroom mentors and culturally responsive education, students get the guidance, connection and resources they need to succeed – both inside and outside of the classroom. Building this strong foundation supports health and strengthens communities.

Receiving care that reflects your community and culture can make all the difference.

As part of National Minority Health Month, we’re highlighting the everyday factors that support healthier communities.

We partner with the Greater NW Community Health Collective to invest in Community Health Worker (CHW) training programs that prepare BIPOC and Oregon Health Plan (OHP) members to serve their own communities. Program graduates provide health education, connect people to vital services, and volunteer at health fairs and mobile clinics – helping build trust and improve access to care.

We’re proud to welcome Portland Opportunities Industrialization Center (POIC) as our CareOregon Grand Floral Starlight Parade community partner! 🤩

“POIC embodies the spirit of imagination and opportunity that this year’s parade is all about,” said Eric C. Hunter, President and CEO of CareOregon. “For nearly sixty years, they’ve created pathways to education and employment. Their work strengthens families, opens doors for young people and builds healthier, more connected communities. We couldn’t ask for a better partner to help us celebrate what it means to ‘Dream Big!’ together here in Portland.”

Dream big with us at the 2026 CareOregon Grand Floral Starlight Parade! 🌹🌟

We’re excited to share this year’s float theme “Dream Big!” brought to life by an iconic Pacific Northwest figure – Bigfoot. A symbol of imagination and limitless possibility, Bigfoot reflects our belief that dreaming big is for everyone, always.

As we celebrate our fifth year as title sponsor, our theme represents what it means to dream big in health care. That includes dreaming of healthier futures by breaking down barriers to health care access, building stronger communities and expanding opportunities so everyone can live healthier lives.

✨ Join us in downtown Portland on June 6 at the CareOregon Grand Floral Starlight Parade as we march forward with a shared dream of a world where access to high-quality health care is for absolutely everyone.
