Communities of Practice
About Communities of Practice
A North Sound ACH Community of Practice (CoP) serves as an ecosystem platform where members with aligned interests, professions, and fields come together with a shared desire to collaborate, support one another, share expertise, build capacity, and drive collective growth to solve common challenges.
Through the Community of Practice (CoP) Charter, individual members have the opportunity to:
- Discuss and collaborate in both informal and formal settings
- Develop shared best practices through collective learning and understanding
- Share professional and lived experiences
- Support one another in advancing goals, aspirations, or addressing challenges
- Exchange tools, techniques, approaches, and resources
North Sound ACH is supporting Communities of Practice within the Collaborative Action Network, by providing meeting logistics, this Resource Library, co-facilitation, subject matter experts and training, and connections with regional partners. Read on to see what Communities of Practice have emerged in 2026.

CHEDI – Clinicians for Health Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
A Community of Practice with the North Sound Accountable Community of Health, CHEDI is a collaborative community of practice for licensed, patient-facing clinicians committed to advancing health equity across the North Sound region. Rooted in a targeted universalism approach, this space centers representation, education, and policy as pathways to equitable care and healthier communities.
Members come together for dialogue, mutual learning, and resource sharing—reflecting on lived experience, elevating clinical insight, and building collective strategies to reduce inequities at the community level. Through reflection, action, and partnership, CHEDI cultivates a network of clinicians equipped to influence systems, amplify historically underrepresented voices, and transform the conditions that shape health. If you have any questions, please reach out to Devyn Nixon at Devyn@divinityhealthandwellness.org.
