About Us

The mission of Oregon's Health Security, Preparedness and Response (HSPR) program is to develop public health systems to prepare for and respond to major, acute threats and emergencies that impact the health of people in Oregon.

Our efforts are an emergency response collaboration with Oregon Emergency Management (OEM) and our local, regional and national Emergency Management partners.

The Health Security, Preparedness and Response program is funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Cooperative Agreement and the Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP).

HSPR ensures that Oregon's communities and hospitals have an improving level of preparedness for health and medical emergencies by supporting the development and testing of plans, providing training, managing volunteers and encouraging collaboration.

HSPR dedicates staff within all the Oregon Public Health Division centers.

To ensure that the required elements of federal preparedness grant agreements are implemented, HSPR coordinates work plans with state staff working on:

  • Epidemiology and disease surveillance
  • Public health laboratory preparedness and Laboratory Response Network (LRN)
  • Strategic national stockpile
