Purchase your tickets today for Oregon PSR’s 2012 Awards Dinner, honoring the high school student winners of our Greenfield Peace Writing Contest and featuring internationally acclaimed physician, author and anti-nuclear activist Dr. Helen Caldicott as keynote speaker.
Oregon PSR is pleased to announce that the fourth annual Greenfield Peace Writing Contest is now open. Any 11th or 12th grade student in Oregon may enter by submitting an original piece of fiction, poem, or essay.
Registration is now open for the 4th Annual NW Environmental Health Conference, scheduled for February 10th, 2012 in Portland. The conference will host leading scientists, researchers, and health professionals in the multidisciplinary field of Environmental Health to continue our robust dialogue on the interrelationship between the environment and health and healthcare practices.
Eighteen chapter leaders gathered recently for a dynamic two days of networking, strategizing and learning. Joined by national staff and meeting under the banner “Collaborating for a Stronger PSR,” the leaders focused on improving their recruitment of health professionals, building membership and tapping the talents of others in the network. The group welcomed several new faces, including two executive directors. The meeting took place in downtown Chicago.
