Expanded Outreach Program In Central Portland

(Portland, OR) -- A pilot project to help people in Portland's Central City with mental health and addiction problems is being expanded. The Unified Command, under the Governor's 90-day fentanyl emergency, has recommended spending 682-thousand dollars to lease a space and staff the operation. The money would fund four peer support specialist-outreach team members, a project coordinator, a vehicle and leased space at the Mercy Corps building. The cost is being split between the state, Multnomah County and the City of Portland.
