The Orange County Women’s Health Project is an exciting nonprofit collaborative launched in 2011 to address the lack of coordination around women’s health issues in Orange County, California.
Nearly half of Orange County’s three million residents are women, but unlike other counties, Orange County has no Office of Women's Health, Commission on the Status of Women, and until recently, no coalition to focus on women's health issues across the county.
Through extensive outreach and the Orange County Women's Health Summits, the county's many diverse stakeholders have joined together to create a central voice and develop a cohesive policy agenda for women’s health in Orange County. The OCWHP is honored to lead a diverse coalition in advancing women's health through collaboration, education, and advocacy.
