Coalition Leadership
We’re a coalition of leaders in healthcare, education, business and economic development, human services, non-profit organizations and the faith community.
We’re the Snohomish County Health Leadership Coalition—a group leveraging its leadership accountability and combined expertise to address the challenge of delivering sustainable healthcare. Combined, we’ve created a shared community vision to improve our county’s health and quality of life. The Coalition Leadership is a small group doing big work, facilitating and executing the coalition’s work.
