Health- care providers have a responsibility to deliver inclusive, quality care that considers the needs of the whole patient. That means providing patients with relevant, reliable information that empowers and en- gages them to make choices for a healthier life. The truth is that all healthcare providers should strive to provide an environment where no one is excluded— where everyone has ac- cess to compassionate, personalized care and the opportunity for bet- ter health regardless of their struggles or sta- tion in life. And that’s the right model for all providers. Because we must get to know our pa- tients on an individual, holistic level—not pre- a share of the purse to stabilize the gym inan- cially. Only ater receiv- ing sage advice from a homeless old man (Wes- ley Williams) about what Jesus would advise does Logan grudgingly agree to the showdown. Thus unfolds “The Fight Within,” a faith- based variation on “Rocky” directed by Michael William Gor- don. Although the movie doesn’t really break any new ground in terms of romantic, overcoming-the-odds scribe a one-size-its-all approach—if we intend to truly improve their health outcomes. Finally, our policy- makers, civic leaders and all who have a stake in the health of our com- munity must address the social determinants that inluence and wid- en the diabetes equity gap. For years, we’ve known that diabetes can be prevented and managed with healthy lifestyle changes such as exercise and good nutri- tion. But it’s diicult to go for a run around the block when you live in a high-crime neighbor- hood. It’s challenging to ind fresh fruits and veg- etables when you live in a food desert. We must marshal our communi- ties around the policies that afect our environ- ment’s ability to support a culture of health and wellness. 8-10-16 SUB-BIDS/SUPPLIER QUOTES REQUESTED Peavy Building Project Address: 3100 SW Jefferson Way Corvallis, OR 97333 Bids Due: Wed., August 31, 2016 @ 2pm WCC is soliciting bids on structure, utility, UG MEP, & elevator for an approx. 83,875 s.f. academic building.

Special Notes: BOLI prevailing wages apply. It is our primary goal as a labor union to better the lives of all people working in the building trades through advocacy, civil demonstration, and the long-held belief that workers deserve a “family wage” - fair pay for an honest day’s work. A family wage, and the beneits that go with it, not only strengthens families, but also allows our communities to become stronger, more cohesive, and more responsive to their citizens’ needs. Our family wage agenda relects our commitment to people working in the building trades, and to workers everywhere. In this small way, we are doing our part to help people achieve the American Dream. This dream that workers can hold dear regardless of race, color, national origin, gender, creed, or religious beliefs. 2905 SW First Ave Portland, OR 97201 (503) 222-4375 FAX (866) 446-0681 Paciic Northwest Regional Council of Carpenters Contact: Brian Johnson ORCCB # 147267/WALSHCC962LD Walsh Construction Co. is an equal opportunity em- ployer and requests sub-bids from Minority, women, disadvantaged and emerging small business enter- prises. 8-17-16 Representing more than 5,000 construction workers in Oregon State.
