The Oregon Coalition of Local Health Officials (CLHO) is a vital organization that supports Local Public Health Authorities in Oregon. They are dedicated to advocating for public health funding and policy, while also providing essential services to promote the public's well-being. CLHO works closely with the Oregon Legislature to advocate for funding Public Health Modernization, implementing a statewide tobacco retail license, and supporting universally-offered home visiting programs.

They also produce a comprehensive legislative toolkit and advocacy materials for individuals interested in engaging in advocacy efforts. In addition to advocacy, CLHO provides critical communication and workforce development support to Oregon's Local Public Health Authorities. They keep the public informed by sharing updates on public health news through their newsletter and develop communication materials.

They also host training sessions and provide assistance for Public Health Accreditation and Public Health Administrator Leadership Development. With a commitment to improving the health of all Oregonians, CLHO serves as the collective voice of 32 Local Public Health Authorities.
