Our dove's got a new look!

PeaceHealth’s updated logo is a symbol of our dedication to health justice and our courage to care differently for our communities. Get a behind-the-scenes look at how we created it.

Consider joining a walk or run this year with your friends or family.

Are you trying to be more physically active? How about participating in one of PeaceHealth's upcoming walking or running events? Ski to Sea happens in May. And there's time to train if you want to be ready for the Bellingham Bay Marathon in September.


These are fun for family and friends of all ages. Making them happen is part of our commitment to whole-person health and the communities we serve.


Come out and enjoy any of these events, either as a spectator or participant. We hope to see you at one or more of the races this year.
