Oregon is served by a coordinated network of state, regional, and local agencies that work together to protect communities, manage natural resources, and deliver essential services. From environmental protection to public safety, these agencies ensure responsive, equitable governance across the state’s diverse landscapes—supporting residents through collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to community well-being.
The State of Oregon is home to a diverse landscape of public agencies dedicated to serving its people, protecting its natural resources, and promoting community well-being. From the forests of the Cascades to the high desert of the east, Oregon’s state, regional, and local agencies collaborate to provide essential services in public safety, environmental stewardship, health, transportation, and education.
Key state-level departments—such as the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF), Oregon Health Authority (OHA), Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT)—set statewide policy and provide oversight, funding, and guidance to regional and local partners. These state agencies work in tandem with counties, cities, fire protection districts, school districts, park authorities, and tribal governments to implement programs and ensure equitable service delivery across Oregon’s urban and rural communities.
Together, these agencies form a responsive and interdependent system of governance, focused on sustaining Oregon’s natural beauty, strengthening its infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of life for all residents. Through innovation, local engagement, and shared accountability, Oregon’s public agencies embody a commitment to community resilience and public trust.
