Governors Proclaim March as Kidney Month in Washington and Oregon
The Northwest Kidney Council (NWKC) extends our sincere gratitude to the Governors of both Washington and Oregon for recognizing March as Kidney Month and helping elevate awareness of chronic kidney disease across the Pacific Northwest, especially kidney dialysis patients who rely on regular, life-sustaining treatment.
Recently in Olympia: Session Update
As the 2026 short session continues in Olympia, the Northwest Kidney Council (NWKC) remains focused on advancing legislation that improves outcomes for kidney dialysis patients and the providers who care for them. In the past month, NWKC has seen meaningful progress on two key bills directly impacting kidney dialysis patients and providers.
Our Partners
We can't do this work alone. The Northwest Kidney Council is grateful to have so many partners throughout the Pacific Northwest aligned with our mission to advance access to kidney care.
