Behavioral Health Resource Network (BHRN)

The goal of our BHRN program is to provide a single point of access to harm reduction, treatment, and recovery for people who use alcohol or drugs. This program was originally funded through the Oregon legislature by a ballot initiative called Measure 110, which had the goal of expanding access to treatment across the state of Oregon. The BHRN program promotes a culture of safety, empowerment, and healing.
