Join us in Baker City next week!
We don't want you to miss out!
Considering half of our country's population will be affected by menopause, there's a stunning and completely unacceptable information gap about how to manage and treat the myriad symptoms related to menopause. To address this gap, the Crossroads Carnegie Art Center, the Women’s Foundation of Oregon, and St. Luke’s - Eastern Oregon Medical Associates are proud to host the second edition of “Pause! What’s missing in the talk about menopause” in Baker City, Oregon.
The public is invited to an unfiltered and fun conversation about menopause and all things menopause-related. This event is centered on community learning, connectivity and dialogue - to share information and spread awareness (details in flyer appove).
With less than 11% of the NIH budget in 2020 dedicated to women’s health research, despite women representing 51% of the American population, community spaces are critical. We are proud to collaborate with Baker City Organizations to facilitate this important conversation.
In solidarity,
The WFO Team

Shape the scope and direction of the
Women's Foundation of Oregon's research
In 2017, the Women’s Foundation of Oregon produced a report, titled Count Her In. This report provided an expansive, actionable, and inclusive, analysis of Oregon’s women and girls that served as a baseline and a call to action, a celebration of resilience, and an opportunity to do things differently for future Oregonians.
We are excited to announce we are in the process of shaping and designing the 10-year update to that report. Our hope, purpose, and focus, for the 2027 update is to create a research tool or report centered on anti-sexist, gender justice systems change.
Whether you were an active user of the 2017 Count Her In report and its supplemental Eight That Can’t Wait policy briefs or you have never heard of these efforts, we would be deeply appreciative to receive your input and feedback on the scope and direction of this next iteration of our work.
Please complete the form here by August 26th. Your responses will help us to determine our future plans and goals!
