About Heather Reppeto

With over 15 years of experience in the behavioral health and medical fields, I am committed to fostering culturally responsive trauma-informed care that emphasizes health equity. Currently serving as Executive Director at Outside In, I leverage my expertise in change management and program integration to enhance whole-person care systems, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and values. Previously, as Chief Health and Wellness Officer at NARA NW, I facilitated the integration of medical, dental, pharmacy, mental health, and substance use programs through a cultural lens, ensuring quality outcomes and clinical excellence. My approach emphasizes systemic change, policy development, and collaboration with leadership to reduce barriers to care while addressing complex health challenges.
