Northwest Native American Center of Excellence at OHSU

The Northwest Native American Center of Excellence (NNACoE) works to sustainably address the health care needs of all people by increasing the number of AI/ANs in the U.S. health professions workforce.

Native youth aspire to solve the most pressing challenges facing tribal communities and the world and NNACoE is here to amplify Indigenous voices in the health workforce.

We guide Native students on their educational journeys, from middle school through early career by offering initiatives at key moments along the path to becoming a health care professional.

Join us as we transform the healthcare system by cultivating a new generation of Indigenous health professionals.
