Nicolina Miller Named New OPHCC Executive Director

The Olympic Peninsula Healthy Community Coalition (OPHCC) is pleased to introduce Nicolina Miller as the new Executive Director of the organization.

Miller relocated from Seattle to Port Angeles and is looking forward to connecting with the Coalition’s many partners. Most recently Miller served as Development Manager for a non-profit organization in Seattle.

OPHCC Co-founder and Board Director Monica Dixon, PhD, RD, says, “Nicolina will help shape the continued growth and success of the Coalition.” Her strengths include program and event coordination, marketing, funding development and reporting.

Dixon added, “realizing the additional stresses and challenges residents are facing during this pandemic, the Coalition is expanding its wellness focus.” OPHCC’s first initiative, 5-2-1-0, focused on four healthy habits everyone can incorporate into their daily lifestyle to improve health. As the pandemic stretched on, it became clear a broader approach was needed, so OHPCC has launched an expanded program. “Take Care of Your Whole Health” focuses on finding balance and connection between mind, body, spirit, and community.

Incoming Executive Director Miller shared, “I’m very excited to build relationships on the Peninsula, dig into this great work, and see how my background and skills can help move the “Take Care” campaign forward.”

“The pandemic has greatly impacted all of our lives,” said Mark Ozias, OPHCC board president, “so we’re excited to focus our efforts more broadly to help our communities come together, share resources and build upon each other’s assets as we look to our future.”

Olympic Peninsula Healthy Community Coalition, a local 501(c)3, works to make our community a healthier place to live, learn, work and play.
