3 OCCI offers individuals the opportunity to receive innovative medical treatments through clinical research. A clinical trial is a study conducted to collect information about the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication. The reward of offering investigational medication to our community is the knowledge that we are contributing to the expansion of healthcare choices. OCCI has a fully trained team of research professionals, including Board Certified physicians in psychiatry and neurology. Studies are available for ages six and older. Improving your qualify of life through research OCCI conducts clinical trials for: Anxiety Disorders, Depression, Sleep Disorders, Alzheimer s Disease, Parkinson s Disease, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Migraines, Multiple Sclerosis and Bipolar Disorder. Participants will receive diagnoses and evaluations by healthcare professionals who specialize in the CNS field. Each visit includes a physician consultation and study-related care (Eg. EKG, vital signs, comprehensive laboratory evaluations, and study medication) at no cost; no insurance is needed. OCCI provides an aftercare program upon study completion.

6 Preface In the Spring of 2005 the NAMI Multnomah Board of Directors was searching for a project that would reflect the needs of its membership and the needs of the mental health community throughout the Portland Metro area. Recognizing NAMI s mission to offer education, support and advocacy and the decade long struggle for health insurance parity, the Board decided to pursue a project that would help mitigate the problems families and individuals face when attempting to find treatment in the Portland metro area. It is in this spirit of service that NAMI Multnomah produced the Portland Metro area s first comprehensive Mental Health Resource Guide back in June In light of the tremendous positive response from the community, NAMI Multnomah has continued to produce a mental health resource guide on an annual basis. This current guide is the third edition. Past Board members Alan Resnik, Ray North, and Don Moore deserve special recognition for their vision and support of the resource guide project. All NAMI Multnomah members firmly believe treatment works and recovery is possible. We hope that the guide fosters further discussions and investigations between families, individuals, and professions in the attempt to find the road to recovery. This new edition is smaller since it only contains community resource information. The descriptions of the major mental illnesses and medications can be accessed via the national website: Additionally, the frequently asked questions contained in the past guides will be available online at the NAMI Multnomah website: We are being mindful of our duty to be environmentally conscious and have attempted to reduce unnecessary duplication of information. This guide would not have been possible without initial financial and strategic support from the Maybelle Clark Macdonald Fund during 2005, 2006, and We would like to thank Chris Folkestad of the Maybelle Clark Macdonald Fund for his support and faith in our organization. Major funding for this edition of the guide was provided by Multnomah County Department of Human Services and the Mental Health and Addiction Services Division. Substantial funding was also provided by Legacy Health System, PayLess Drug, and FamilyCare, Inc.. Additionally, we would like to thank Providence Health System for their ongoing generous offer to provide us with office space. Other financial supporters of this current guide include: Oregon Center for Clinical Investigations, Inc., Summit Research Network, AstraZeneca, Leupold & Stevens Foundation, Kaiser Permanente, Morrison, LifeWorks NW, the Fred G. and Elizabeth M. Wessinger Fund of the Oregon Community Foundation, the Waitte Foundation, and Tom Hansen, MD. Of course many individuals throughout the community contributed their time and expertise to this guide. We are unable to list everyone, but there are a few notables. Amber Jackson volunteered her time to do the major research and updating for the various community resources listed in this guide. Krista Tricarico did the research and updates for the Alternative Mental Health Resources Section. Arlene Stine spent time refining some of the contact information and following up on loose ends.

10 Introduction When attempting to locate mental health resources one should not underestimate the value of contacting the local NAMI affiliate. NAMI can provide the latest, up-to-date information regarding the local mental health system. Joining NAMI opens doors to increased knowledge and support networks that are unavailable anywhere else. NAMI members are often able to give valuable insight into the nature and quality of the various resources listed in this guide. Each NAMI affiliate offers its own support groups and maintains a list of other support groups occuring in the community. Individuals are encouraged to contact their local NAMI affiliate to get the latest information on support groups and local changes in the community. What is NAMI? NAMI stands for National Alliance on Mental Illness. NAMI is the National Alliance on Mental Illness, the nation s largest grassroots organization for people with mental illness and their families. Founded in 1979, NAMI has affiliates in every state and in more than 1,100 local communities across the country. NAMI Multnomah has been active in Multnomah County, Oregon since With the support of over 500 local members and the support of nearly 50 regular volunteers, NAMI Multnomah helps educate people in the Portland metro area about mental health issues. NAMI Multnomah holds regular educational events, weekly support groups, and a variety of quarterly education classes to help the individuals better understand how to live with mental illness and begin the process of recovery. To learn more about NAMI Multnomah call (503) What is the NAMI mission? NAMI is dedicated to the eradication of mental illnesses and to the improvement of the quality of life for persons of all ages who are affected by mental illnesses. NAMI Multnomah's mission is to improve the quality of life for individuals and families living with mental illness through support, education, and advocacy. What does NAMI do? NAMI members and friends work to fulfill our mission by providing support, education, and advocacy. Our many activities include: Public Education and Information Activities NAMI's National website ( receives over 5.4 million visitors a year who turn to NAMI for information, referral, and education. NAMI Oregon maintains a statewide website ( that highlights advocacy at the legislature. NAMI Multnomah s local website ( has nearly 1,000 separate visitors each month and contains helpful information about the local mental health system. NAMI's National Helpline (800) is staffed by a dedicated team and serves over 4,000 callers per month. NAMI Oregon also maintains a statewide helpline at (503) NAMI Multnomah also has staff and volunteers who can help with local system navigation at (503) Peer Education and Support NAMI Educational Programs (Family-to-Family, Peer-to-Peer, NAMI Connection, Hearts and Minds, and more) provide critical education to help consumers and family members gain knowledge and skills for living successfully with mental illness. Support Groups are provided through many of NAMI's state and local affiliates and offer invaluable connections with peers who understand the challenges and joys of living with mental illness. 1

11 Raising Awareness and Fighting Stigma NAMIWalks is a signature NAMI event that draws thousands of concerned citizens every year who walk together in over sixty communities across the nation to raise money and awareness about mental illness. The 2008 NAMIWalks in Portland, Oregon was held on May 18, Over 100 teams and 1,100 walkers turned out to raise money for NAMI s signature programs. To learn more about NAMIWalks, visit StigmaBusters responds to inaccurate and hurtful language and portrayals of mental illness in the media and promotes understanding and respect for those who live with mental illness. To sign up for alerts, visit the national website at and enter stigmabusters in the search field. In Our Own Voice presents deeply personal and moving journeys of recovery by consumers living with mental illness. The NAMI Multnomah office ranks among the top affiliates in the nation in terms of the number of In Our Own Voice presentations given each year. In 2007, NAMI Multnomah gave 43 separate presentations. State and Federal Advocacy NAMI Advocacy provides a key voice for state and federal public and private-sector policies that facilitate research, end discrimination, reduce barriers to successful life in the community and promote timely, comprehensive and effective mental health services and supports. NAMI Action Centers, include the Children & Adolescent Action Center, and Law and Criminal Justice Action Center, the Multicultural Action Center, and the STAR (Consumer Support Technical Assistance Resource) Center. NAMI's Action Centers advocate for unique populations and develop and disseminate inofrmation to meet specific needs. To learn more, listen to an online interview with NAMI's president. Or, listen to these radio Public Service Announcements. What are the benefits of NAMI membership?

12 Local NAMI Affiliates Each NAMI listed here is its own independent organization with separate governing bodies. Although each NAMI is held to certain uniform standards dictated by the national office, the local mission and programming can vary quite a bit between each NAMI.

13 County Mental Health Departments/Divisions Another important source for locating mental health resources is the local County Mental Health Department/Division. In Oregon, the services offered through County Mental Health Departments/Divisions are often geared toward low income individuals who are Medicaid eligible, but the local departments may offer some limited services for anyone and the departments are certainly a central source for general information and a system overview. Here is contact information for the Portland metro area County Mental Health Departments/Divisions: MULTNOMAH COUNTY Mental Health and Addiction Services Division 421 SW Oak St, Suite 520 Portland, OR Administration voice: (503) Call Center/Crisis and Project Respond: (503) Toll-free: (800) Verity Member Services: (503) WASHINGTON COUNTY Health & Human Services 155 N.

14 State Mental Health Resources There are a number of important state mental health resources. Here is contact information for just some of them. More specific info can be found on the Department of Human Services Addictions and Mental Health website. Addictions and Mental Health Services Division 500 Summer St. NE, E 86 Salem, OR (503) (503) fax Disability Rights of Oregon (formerly Oregon Advocacy Center) Each state has a protection and advocacy agency that receives funding from the Federal Center for Mental Health Services. In Oregon, this agency is the Disability Rights of Oregon (DRO). DRO is mandated to protect and advocate for the rights of people with mental illnesses and to investigate reports of abuse and neglect in facilities that care for or treat individuals with mental illnesses. Facilities under the jurisdication of OAC may be public or private and include hospitals, nursing homes, community facilities, board and care homes, homeless shelters, jails, and prisons. Agencies provide advocacy services or conduct investigations to address issues that arise during transportation or admission to such facilities, during residency in them, or within 90 days after discharge from them. 620 Southwest Avenue, Fifth Floor Portland, OR (503) (800) Office of Consumer/Survivor Technical Assistance OCTA was founded in April Areas of expertise that OCTA has developed since early 2003 include a completely new approach to employment for individuals with psychiatric disabilities utilizing person-directed planning; development of learning tools and materials to help increase the utilization of self-directed Personal Care Services by folks with psychiatric disabilities so that they can live more successfully in their communities (CLASS Project); and an effort now underway to develop peer-operated programs and services throughout Oregon to promote recovery through peer-to-peer support, education, and advocacy consistent with Oregon s evidencebased practice mandate (PEN Project) SW 4th Ave, Suite 900 Portland, OR (503)

15 Oregon State Hospital System The Oregon State Hospital system is undergoing tremendous changes. The system is slated to be more community-based in future years, relying less on the heavily institutionalized nature of the Salem Campus. Those interested in the State Hospital system changes should keep a close eye on the Department of Human Services Addictions and Mental Health website. Of course, NAMI Multnomah can provide updates as well. Listed below are the main campuses of the Oregon State Hospital System that were in existence at the date of this guide s printing.

16 Crisis Resources Unfortunately, individuals living with mental illness sometimes need the assistance of crisis services to prevent immediate harm to themselves or others. Most County Mental Health Departments have a central crisis line which is linked to a mobile crisis team or police/sheriff response. If the police or sheriff are summoned for assistance, it is possible to request that an officer trained in Crisis Intervention Training respond. Some counties have walk-in clinics available for individuals in need of less acute care, but still in psychiatric distress. Multnomah County 24 Hour Mental Health Call Center/Crisis Line Provides 24 hour assistance to adults and children in need of immediate assistance. Authorizes walk-in clinic access.

20 Community Resources Overview In this section we have attempted to compile a comprehensive list of resources in the Portland Metro area that deal with mental health care in some fashion. In order to make this guide manageable, we have only included resources which we deemed directly related to mental health issues. Those who do not find what they are looking for in this guide might consider 211 Info or the United Way for further community-based resources.

21 Academic Resources Mental health resources available in academic settings vary depending on whether the institution provides education directly related to mental health disorders. Community colleges and four-year colleges/universities recognize that students may feel overwhelmed by the responsibilities of advanced education, particularly when they are accompanied by the responsibilities of work and personal relationships. In order to complement their academic mission, most of these institutions provide some form of student health support. Such support typically ranges from merely providing informational literature, to offering nursing assessments and advice, to offering actual mental health counseling. Other services offered involve making sure reasonable accomodations are made for students with disabilities. The cost of mental health care in the academic setting can vary from nothing to a nominal student health fee paid along with the tuition. Certain institutions require their students to purchase group student health insurance. Typically, the private colleges and universities provide mental health resources at little or no cost to the student. Public institutions typically offer students more expensive group health insurance.

27 Child, Adolescent and Family Mental Health Resources Each county in the Portland Metro area is charged with providing children s mental health services in accordance with the Children s System Change Initiative.

61 Housing Resources Finding appropriate long term housing as an adult individual with mental illness or for an adult with mental illness is one of the most difficult tasks in the Portland metro area. Subsidized housing is intended to offer affordable housing to people with low incomes. It is called subsidized because tenants pay a percentage of their income for their rent and utilities and government funds pay the rest. There are three major subsidized housing programs available in the Portland metro area: Low Rent Public Housing, sponsored by the Housing Authority of Portland (HAP); Department of Housing and Urban Development Housing (HUD); and Section 8 housing. Unfortunately, each of these programs have significant waiting lists so individuals looking for subsidized housing will need to find short-term housing arrangements. Subsidized housing is not a quick solution to housing problems, but might serve as a long-term solution so it is important to apply even if the waitlist is long. In addition to the subsidized housing resources, a number of the resources listed in this subsection can offer assistance to individuals of modest means who may also be looking for housing. All housing for individuals being transferred out of the State Hospital is controlled by the Extended Care Management Unit. Cascadia Behavioral Health Care Cascadia Housing is responsible for the development and management of housing for persons having special needs as a result of their struggles with mental illness and/or addictions. Cascadia takes a "housing first" approach, helping people secure housing and then linking them with services that will maximize their success. Most of Cascadia's housing is permanent and affordable to people with extremely low incomes. Services vary from sites where tenants are largely independent, to fully licensed 24-hour staffed facilities. With over 700 units in its portfolio in 2005, Cascadia is increasing this important area resource by an average of 40 units per year.

87 Research Resources NAMI strongly supports severe mental illness research, including research involving human subjects, as this is the basis for all future advances in treatment. However, research involving human subjects must be in accord with the highest scientific, medical, and ethical standards and must protect and honor the individuals and families who make this contribution to scientific progress. Specifically, NAMI demands that: 1) research subjects give truly informed consent and that they and their families fully understand the protocols and risks and benefits of the research; 2) researchers perform independent and ongoing evaluations of research-subject capacity to consent; 3) Institutional Review Boards include consumers and family members: 4) consumers may withdraw from a study at any time without penalty; 5) at the end of the study, or if a consumer terminates participation prematurely, ongoing effective treatment and aftercare are ensured as is feedback on the study results.

Most of the high level residential care facilities contract out their bed spaces to the State and County Mental Health Authorities which mainly serve Medicaid (and Medicare) clients. Oregon s Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services has an Extended Care Management Unit that utilizes many of the structured residential care bed spaces for state hospital diversions or state hospital aftercare. Additionally, the various County Mental Health Departments utilize structured residential care bed spaces to help manage the care of local Medicaid eligible individuals with the aim of preventing the need for hospitalization. However, private pay individuals are able to access these beds on occasion. Structured residential care facilities for mental health are licensed by the State and overseen locally by the County Mental Health Departments. In Multnomah County, access to a structured residential care facility is handled by the County Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services. Interested parties should call (503) and ask for the Residential Worker of the Day. Other counties handle access in a similar manner. Check with your local mental health department for more information. There are various levels of structured residential care for mental health in the Portland metro area: Secure Residential Programs serve 6 or more residents, have rotated, 24-7 staffing patterns and restrict the resident s exit from the facility. Residential Treatment Facilities serve 6 or more residents and have rotated, 24-7 staffing patterns. Residential Treatment Homes serve up to 5 residents in a more intimate setting and have rotated, 24-7 staffing patterns. Adult Foster Homes serve up to 5 residents in family-style homes where the owner-provider serves as the staff member. This is not considered 24-7 care since the staff sleep while residents are sleeping also. The level of treatment is usually just medication management and ADL prompting. Supported Housing Programs are provided in accordance with individual resident needs, and while all residents in this approach are offered case management, it may or may not be considered a direct part of the housing program. The housing has either been developed by the service provider or is leased from a housing authority, nonprofit housing agency or private landlord. Consumers enjoy well-maintained housing with a minimal level of staff support on site. Here is a list of the current residential housing opportunities in the Portland area that are overseen by the ECMU: Multnomah County: In Star, Alberta Street Plaza, Horizon House, Hazelwood House, Andrea Place, Columbia House, McCarthy Place, Nadine s Place, Pisgah Home Colony, Rita May Manor, Willamette Rose, Glisan Street, Cognitive Enrichment Concept, Barbara Roberts West, Barbara Roberts East, Arbor Place, Faulkner Place, Telecare Recovery Center.

97 Oxford Housing Oxford Houses are democratically self-run by the residents who elect officers to serve for terms of six months. In this respect, they are similar to a college fraternity or sorority. A recovering individual can live in an Oxford House for as long as he or she does not drink alcohol, does not use drugs, and pays an equal share of the house expenses. The average stay is a little over a year, but many residents stay three, four, or more years. There is no pressure on anyone in good standing to leave. However, if a majority of residents believe that any member has relapsed into using alcohol or drugs, that person is immediately expelled. There are no resident counselors in an Oxford House. Any recovering alcoholic or drug addict can apply to get into any Oxford House by filling out an application at the house of their chice and being interviewed by the existing members of the House. The application is then considered by the membership of the House and if there is a vacancy and if 80% of the members approve, the applicant is accepted and moves in. Rent is usually lower than current market value which makes Oxford Houses more affordable for low income individuals.
