We know Portland wants a better and more coordinated approach to the homelessness crisis.”
Dear Friends:
Our clients, community and Oregon itself are on the Road to Recovery. I’ll never cease to be amazed by the spirit of service of our staff and board who choose to face and hold others with kindness, empathy and grace.
Our community continues to face complex challenges related to increasingly deadly drugs, the behavioral health workforce shortage, lack of shelter, housing capacity and program access. We also see a rapidly growing aging population of medically complex folks seeking services and care. We’re observing the folks we serve needing deeper engagement efforts in order to create connections and achieve success.
Despite these challenges, I share a message of hope. Central City Concern (CCC) is exactly where we’re supposed to be. We’re proud to be serving the most vulnerable members of our community. We’re proud to be stepping up to convene our regional key stakeholders. Our goal is to create strategic alignment between our housing, health care and regional continuum of care partners. We know Portland wants a better and more coordinated approach to the homelessness crisis. We commit to elevating a platform which prevents folks from becoming homeless in the first place.
Our goal is simple — to end homelessness.
We can’t do this alone, but we can lead the way and ensure the right folks are working together. One exciting opportunity ahead is the 1115 Medicaid Demonstration Waiver, going live in January 2024. The waiver will have a profound impact on this crisis by better connecting housing and health care.
This past year, CCC strengthened our foundation by establishing six core values to underscore our work — safety, collaboration, learning, equity, sustainability and compassion. Our values are the heart of CCC, illustrating our priorities, areas of focus, and how we show up in the world.
We have reason to be hopeful, anchored in the thousands of folks CCC successfully serves every year. Thank you for supporting CCC and helping build a community where everyone can thrive.
Andy Mendenhall, M.D., President and CEO

Heroes Work Here
Tragically, Oregon saw a 34% increase in opioid overdose deaths between 2020 and 2021—the second highest in the country. The increase is in part due to fentanyl, a synthetic opioid 30 to 50 times more powerful than heroin.
CCC’s clients and residents are profoundly affected by this trend, and we have seen a significant increase in overdose deaths as well as nonfatal overdoses. In response, CCC launched the Zero Overdose Initiative, with a vision of ending overdose deaths among our clients.
A crucial component of the Zero Overdose Initiative is increasing access to Naloxone (also known as Narcan) in CCC housing and training staff on how to administer it. Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can reverse an overdose from opioids—including heroin, fentanyl and prescription opioid medications.
In 2022, wall-mounted Naloxone stations were installed in all CCC housing sites with community areas, so residents and staff have easy access in the case of an overdose. In December, 10 CCC staff attended a train-the-trainers event and are now ready to facilitate Naloxone trainings.
After being trained, CCC staff have heroically responded to overdoses—for CCC residents and for those living outside.
The work of the Zero Overdose Initiative has just begun. In future, the Initiative will include a resident education campaign, supply distribution, a new program to provide overdose prevention, aftercare services and more. In response to the overdose epidemic, CCC is determined to do whatever we can to save lives.
In 2022, CCC made a concerted effort to expand our work in the community through our Navigation Team. The Team continues to develop our service capabilities and increase the level and intensity of our outreach and care coordination support to those experiencing homelessness. Building relationships takes time and a consistent presence. On average, our six team members visit 20-30 unhoused people each day, with 6-10 of these people receiving intensive follow-up.
In 2022, CCC served 8,967 health patients, 7,435 of whom received primary care and 2,912 of whom received mental health services. Of all patients served, 5,419 experienced homelessness.
Courday’s Story
Courday was tired of the cycle of addiction, homelessness and incarceration. “I would get arrested, go to jail, detox in jail, get out, and do it all over again.” Then came the moment when he decided to make moves toward stability, after being arrested on an outstanding warrant while riding a MAX train without a ticket, on his way to get a fix. Once again, he was forced to detox in jail. “When you’re in jail, and you’re detoxing, they don’t have empathy or compassion for addicts. They just look at you and think you’re another junkie.” This time, he broke the cycle.
After completing inpatient treatment, he entered CCC’s “8×8” building, where he was given a place to live and access to recovery services. “The structure of being in a CCC program allowed me to be myself and take things at my own pace,” he says. Accountability played a huge role in the structure that supported his sobriety. “When you get to know all these people and create these relationships, sobriety is the glue that keeps everybody together,” he says. “I think what kept me honest and kept me sober was not wanting to lose that sense of community.”
Courday was set up with an Employment Specialist at CCC’s Employment Access Center, and initially landed an on-call position with Central City Staffing, working at the front desk and holding janitorial duties at many CCC properties. His specialist encouraged him to take advantage of a volunteer opportunity at 4D Recovery’s Civic Engagement Leadership Development program. He’s currently Director of Special Projects and Executive Assistant at 4D. “I love helping people become better versions of themselves, just like how I was taught to be a better version of myself.”
Our New Developments
In 2022, CCC completed construction on two new, innovative and deeply affordable housing developments. With a focus on enhancing our culturally specific programs, building more deeply permanent supportive housing and housing for families, CCC continues to evolve our services and housing to serve our clients in more diverse settings and geographies. We know house keys end homelessness.
Cresent Court Apartments
- Open date: May 2022
- Units: 138
- Featuring On-Site Boys & Girls Club
Crescent Court Apartments is the second affordable development resulting from our partnership with Related Northwest. Crescent Court’s 138 homes were built in response to the area’s high demand for affordable family and multi-generational housing. The development is comprised of studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments to accommodate families. Crescent Court also offers the first Boys & Girls Club of Portland clubhouse co-located in an affordable housing community, providing a safe and positive space for kids, and free after-school activities.
The Starlight
- Open date: Dec 2022
- Units: 100
- Featuring Art therapy space
Located in Portland’s historic Old Town District, the Starlight brings 100 new affordable homes online, 70 of which are providing permanent supportive housing for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness. The remaining units are set aside for community members with limited incomes. CCC is partnering with the Native American Rehabilitation Association and CCC’s Imani Center, Karibu and Flip the Script to offer culturally specific programming for Native and African American individuals.
Emily's Story
Emily has worked as an On-Call Associate for Central City Staffing since January 2023. A graduate of CCC’s Letty Owings Center, she now resides with her one-year-old daughter Ellie at Crescent Court Apartments, an affordable development co-owned by CCC and Related Northwest. Emily entered Letty Owings nineteen weeks pregnant, homeless and still in her addiction. “I was super scared,” she recalled, “I had to be dragged by my ear in there, but...I had to realize there’s a method to their madness, and just accept the help.” Today, Emily is completing coursework to become a Certified Recovery Mentor with an eye towards becoming a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor expressing the desire to, “give back to the community that got me to where I’m at.”
Emily feels supported by CCC’s team at Crescent Court. “Katie Stewart is amazing. She has helped me with resources. If I’m feeling overwhelmed or stressed, sometimes I just take Ellie for a walk down there and go see Katie because she loves playing with her.” Emily also called for an expansion of Letty Owings saying, “There are so many more moms that are out there who need that support and need the opportunity. Letty is great. They definitely fight for you.” Emily summarized CCC as, “the hand that’s held me and got me to a place of stability, safety, support. I can’t even express how grateful I am.”
Recognizing a Changing Climate
CCC acknowledges we’re facing a changing climate. While no corner of the globe is immune to the devastating impacts of climate change, marginalized groups are disproportionately experiencing the most harmful effects of this crisis, including extreme weather events, food insecurity, economic instability, and toxic pollution. These stressors have an adverse effect on the physical and psychological wellbeing of our communities and represent significant barriers in their path towards long term stability and success. We also recognize accelerated mitigation and adaptation efforts worldwide are imperative to avoid the worst impacts of climate change before the year 2050.
We are committed to a healthy, equitable and climate-safe future for all of our clients and staff and are taking action to protect environmental resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and decrease vulnerability to the ecological and economic hazards of climate change.
In 2022, CCC received a five-year commitment from the Portland Clean Energy Fund to fund the equipment and installation of over 600 air conditioners throughout the CCC housing portfolio. To date, 168 units have been installed.
Building Confidence and Community
When people come to CCC, finding and committing to employment can feel insurmountable, especially when coupled with early recovery or the challenge of finding stable housing. This is where Community Volunteer Corps, better known as CVC, comes in.
CVC is a volunteer program providing individuals in CCC housing with the opportunity to build skills to ease their transition into the workforce. Participants build these skills by volunteering for nonprofit organizations like Sunshine Division, Portland Parks & Recreation, Ronald McDonald House of Oregon and SW Washington and Free Geek. Volunteering gives participants an opportunity to build valuable “soft skills” that can be used on a resume while building self-confidence in a work environment.
CVC participants must complete 80 hours of volunteering and commit to one five hour shift a week. CVC brings people together to not only develop skills but build community around recovery. In 2022, CVC volunteers spent over 10,000 hours giving back to the community. Additionally, 117 participants completed the program or received full time employment. We celebrated by hosting our first in-person graduation in over three years!
Our social enterprise programs remained strong.
Clean Start, a six-month mentored employment program that fills cleaning and maintenance needs throughout the Portland metro area, graduated 24 individuals, all of whom moved onto full-time employment.
Central City Staffing, a 12-month training program that provides valuable work experience for formerly homeless clients while also meeting the need for 24/7 front desk coverage at CCC’s housing buildings, graduated 74 individuals, all of whom moved onto full-time employment; 61 of those positions are located at CCC.
In less than six years, I went from a CVC participant to a program supervisor. My colleagues and myself are quick to tell people in orientation ‘hey, we’ve been through this program, we’ve graduated this program, we’ve gone through Central City Concern services. We understand where you’re at and all we want to do is help.”
- Jonathan Wall, CVC Program Manager
Community. Trust. Safety.
These three words are the cornerstone of what it means to deliver culturally specific and responsive programs. CCC’s culturally-specific programs provide community-based services centered on the cultural values of ethnic, minority and disproportionately underserved communities in order to elevate the voices and experiences of those who have been historically oppressed.
In 2022, CCC was proud to launch Karibu (pronounced “kah-REE-boo”). Karibu provides individualized stabilization and treatment services for Black and African American men who are involved or at-risk of involvement with the criminal justice system and who may have behavioral health needs. Karibu also offers 14 beds of transitional housing. Up to 20 beds will be available by the end of 2023. Karibu’s approach supports a client-centered and trauma informed service model, offering a range of services focused on behavioral health, peer support, housing, community connections, and crisis intervention.
“Knowing the process of this day was very challenging at times. It allowed for us to hold on to the Imani, which means faith in Swahili,” says Program Manager Tori Hatter-Smith. “So, take out the time to embrace such a spectacular moment in a community where our Native ancestors once stood. Let’s [also] not forget the Black men and women we are currently helping and will help to establish healthy and prosperous life back in society. Once again I welcome each of you to our new Karibu home and our relocation of the Imani Center.”
In Swahili, Imani means “Faith.” In Swahili, Karibu means “Welcome”—which is how we want all clients to feel as they step inside the door. In Swahili, Pamoja means “Together.”
Being the Change
Central City Concern believes an effective response to ending homelessness prioritizes systems alignment, supportive and connected services that advance long term stability and wellness like behavioral health and income attainment, and restorative anti-racist practices. We know that both community and individual success must be grounded in aligned systems with minimal care gaps and a whole-person approach anchored in access to housing, behavioral health and health care, economic resiliency and social connectedness.
In 2022, CCC joined forces with the Transforming Justice Coalition to support passage of SB 1510, the Transforming Justice Bill which focused on transitioning our system to one dedicated to successful reentry versus punishment. SB 1510 reduces racial disparities in traffic stops, improves success for people on probation/parole and invests in healing in communities of color.
Oregon saw passage of the historic 1115 Medicaid Demonstration Waiver, going live in January 2024. The waiver will have a profound impact on the homelessness crisis by blending housing and health care services in more connected ways to the benefit of CCC clients, directing Medicaid dollars to fund housing services for our patients.
Oregon faces a catastrophic shortage of behavioral health care workers. Nearly all providers across the state have unprecedented labor shortages. According to the OHSU/PSU School of Public Health, Oregon is experiencing an estimated shortage of 35,000 workers (Oregon Alcohol and Drug Policy Commission 9-22-222). CCC supported passage of HB 4004 which created a grant program for Oregon’s providers, permitting them to raise wages to competitive levels designed to support the retention and recruitment of staff in the current labor market.
OUR FINANCIAL HEALTH
Maintaining fiscal responsibility and financial health are critical to sustaining the work and community impact that has been our focus since 1979. Like many organizations, CCC continues to navigate converging challenges including healthcare workforce shortages, community behavioral health access gaps, inflationary pressures, and ongoing pandemic impacts. Despite these challenges, CCC maintained financial stability and our level of service delivery.
We are especially grateful for continued donor and partner support. These funds allow us to continue to deliver high quality care and to adapt to emerging community needs.
As we navigate our fifth decade of providing critical services to our community and supporting individuals and families on their paths to wellness, recovery, and stability, we will continue to invest our resources and our hearts into providing healthcare, housing and employment opportunities to the neighbors in need in our community.
