Building a Culture of Health: Annual Benefit and Award Soiree
September 18th 2021
The Community Health Trust instituted the Phil Rather Award for Leadership in Healthcare in 1999 to honor Mr. Rather’s legacy of service to the community.
For three decades, Phil Rather advocated for access to healthcare for Pájaro Valley residents, especially those facing economic and social barriers. He championed the creation of the Community Health Trust’s Diabetes Health Center, which has filled a significant gap in diabetes prevention and self-management education services for the community.
The annual Rather Award for Leadership in Healthcare recognizes those who have made outstanding contributions to health and quality of life in Pajaro Valley.
