The American poet and civil rights activist Maya Angelou advised that "we may encounter many defeats, but we must not be defeated." This extremely challenging year will be remembered for some time despite our collective desire to leave it in the rear view mirror. Yet despite a pandemic, protests, plagues, unemployment, a recession, wildfires, hurricanes, and a presidential election, our Association and our industry continues to demonstrate a resiliency and determination that in a larger sense, defines this great nation. Our PHCC members continue to move forward with hope in their eyes and a bone in their teeth as they protect the health and safety of everyone and our planet.

Like so many associated with PHCC, Darrell Fuller is passionate about meeting needs in his local community. So when wildfires recently destroyed nearly a million acres in his home state – and with communities evacuating just a few miles from where he lives – the PHCC of Oregon executive director stepped in as a Red Cross Disaster Response volunteer.
