formerly known as the Living Well Forum, is expanded in scope this
year to include a wide variety of evidence-based chronic disease
self-manageent programs and resources. The agenda is geared to appeal
to a broad audience of those involved with self-management program
provision, coordination, promotion and funding in Oregon. Attendees

coordinators; public health and social services professionals; health
system representatives (including clinical providers and staff),
insurers, employers, and other interested community partners.

An important note: There will be a $50 registration fee for the forum
