3 OPCA TEAM PERKS
At OPCA, weāre focused on innovations which improve the health of Oregonians. That includes building a collaborative and balanced workplace environment within the organization. Here are a few things we did in 2023 to strengthen our team.

#1. We Implemented an Office Dog Policy
OPCA allows staff to bring their dogs into the office, provided the dogs are in good health, well-behaved, and supervised by their person. Our canine visitors inspire lots of smiles, and John Hopkins Medicine says that simply petting a dog lowers a personās cortisol while increasing oxytocin.

#2. We Normalized a Hybrid Work Schedule
Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research claims āHybrid is the future of work.ā Generally, hybrid work enables employees to experience the benefits of in-person team building while also ensuring flexibility for work-life balance. OPCA staff work in the office Tuesdays through Thursday and have the option to work from home on Mondays and Fridays.

#3. We Learned Mental Health First Aid
OPCA staff members Brooke Linn and Ada Catanzarite earned certifications as Mental Health First Aid Instructors through a program with the National Council for Mental Well Being and the Missouri Department of Mental Health. They shared their knowledge with the rest of OPCAās team by hosting training sessions at the office. Twenty-six members of OPCA staff earned certificates.
Bonus Perk: Staff Engagement Committee
OPCA has a staff engagement committee dedicated to planning small events for employees to bond outside of formal work projects. The committeeās events include optional brackets for March Madness and Fattest Bear Week, Valentineās Day card swaps, a winter holiday party, happy hours, and volunteer days.
