Last week, we proudly celebrated the successful completion of our 90-hour Community Health Worker (CHW) Training Program. We are honored to recognize our 10 graduates whose dedication, hard work, and commitment have brought them to this important milestone.

Congratulations to all our graduates!👏👏

This cohort represented several cultural backgrounds, creating a rich and diverse learning environment. Their shared commitment to serving their communities demonstrates the power of diversity in advancing health equity and community well-being.

As IRCO, we extend our sincere gratitude to Washington County for its generous support and investment in this program.

We would also like to thank Community Doula Alliance for hosting our CHW training and supporting frontline community health workers' success and growth.

We also thank our facilitators and staff who contributed their time and expertise.

RIP

We are heartbroken by the unexpected passing of Cayle Tern, a beloved Portland community leader, advocate, and champion for immigrant and refugee communities. We extend our deepest love and condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and everyone whose lives were touched by his care, leadership, and generosity.

A refugee from Laos, Cayle dedicated his life to uplifting and advocating for communities across Oregon. Since joining IRCO’s Board of Directors in 2022, he brought compassion, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to every space he entered. He was one of the first Iu Mien community members elected to serve on the Reynolds School District Board, served as Community President for the Iu Mien Association of Oregon, and spent the past seven years supporting IRCO’s Pacific Islander & Asian Family Center (PIAFC) through its advisory council.

Cayle was deeply devoted to community care and collective wellbeing. Through his many roles, he advocated tirelessly for education, food security, healthcare access, community safety, and immigrant rights.

His impact extended far beyond titles or positions. Cayle made people feel seen, supported, and valued. He led with humility, integrity, and genuine heart, always putting community first.

April is Alcohol Awareness Month a time to reflect, learn, and support healthier choices.

Alcohol use can affect not only physical health, but also mental well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. This month is a reminder that awareness is not about judgment it’s about understanding, prevention, and support.

💬 Let’s talk openly about habits and risks

🤝 Let’s support those who are making changes

🌱 And let’s normalize asking for help when it’s needed

Small steps can lead to big change. Every conversation matters.
