Grants Pass-based AllCare Health is pleased to announce a $175,000 grant award to Rogue Retreat for an important project supporting citizens transitioning from substance abuse recovery to a healthy life in Southern Oregon.
The project named "Haven House" is currently underway in Jackson County.
The grant creates additional temporary recovery housing for individuals coming out of in-patient drug and alcohol treatment as well as on-site support in one location. The Haven House model has proven successful since 1998 in improving substance abuse recovery.
This project supports members of AllCare Health's Coordinated Care Organization (CCO), low-income community members, Tribal community members as well as communities of color and -- particularly -- community members experiencing substance abuse, behavioral health challenges and housing insecurity.
The Haven House grant is part of an AllCare Health pledge of $2.7 million this year for improving the health and well-being of all Southern Oregon communities.
Rogue Retreat is a non-profit community partner of AllCare Health. It provides housing assistance, drug- and alcohol-abuse counseling, peer recovery coaching and access to medically-assisted recovery.
These services come at no cost to participants and contribute to lessening the community burden of substance abuse along with improving the well-being and productivity of community members.
