Providence Health Plan is a long-time partner of CCC’s efforts to serve the most vulnerable in our community. Recently, Caresse Sakagawa, Chief Marketing and Product Officer, and Andy Mendenhall M.D. Mendenhall sat down to talk about what non-medical factors affect someone’s health – things like food, housing, and community connections – and why they’re so important in the recovery journey. We’re proud to partner with Providence Health Plan on their Health for All campaign!

Koko Ta’ase was stuck in a cycle of addiction and feeling lost. After years of struggling, he reached a turning point where he knew something had to change. With the support of CCC’s recovery programs, Koko found his way back to stability and purpose. Now, he’s helping others navigate their own journeys of recovery, offering hope that change is possible no matter how difficult the road has been. Here’s his full story – in his own words: https://bit.ly/3Ygx0Hj #compassion #hope #fullcircle #clientstory #endhomelessness #recoveryispossible #recoverycommunity

Being in community with mission and values-aligned people and organizations makes me grateful and happy because it’s what makes #Portland beautiful. Today we celebrated the amazing work of Central City Concern and their 45 years in service to houseless citizens. It’s not easy work but it’s making a difference in building a more equitable and secure future for all Oregonians. Congratulations to Congressman Earl Blumenauer for being honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award for your steadfast commitment to advancing healthy lives in Oregon. I’m also proud of Caresse Sakagawa from Providence Health Plan for serving on the Central City Concern board. It was a wonderful luncheon and chance to reflect on what really matters.
