Pacific Northwest’s PeaceHealth receives $1M to expand Catholic healthcare leadership legacy

PeaceHealth, a nonprofit Catholic health system serving Pacific Northwest communities in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska, has announced a $1 million award from Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace–international Catholic religious congregation. The endowment will support PeaceHealth Leadership in Ministry retreats and ongoing development experiences that deepen hospital leaders’ connection to the health system’s values, legacy, and whole-person care philosophy. The funding aims to preserve and expand next-gen leadership development for caregivers, reinforcing compassionate care delivery across the system’s clinics, hospitals, and medical centers.
