Warm Springs Confederated Tribes is receiving $1 million in funding from the state for five treatment beds.
A $65 million statewide investment, announced by Gov. Tina Kotek, will add more than 100 new residential behavioral health treatment beds to serve adults in Oregon.
The new 146 beds expected between December 2026 and January 2028 are in addition to the 128 existing beds in Oregon.
The announcement made by the Oregon Governor Press Office said the Oregon Health Authority worked with community partners to allocate the funding.
The funding, totaling $65 million, comes after House Bill 2059, which was approved in this year’s legislative session to increase the residential behavioral health services capacity. Those services work to provide withdrawal management, residential treatment and psychiatric inpatient care.
“These investments put real momentum behind Oregon’s efforts to expand residential behavioral health services,” OHA Behavioral Health Division Director Ebony Clarke said in the announcement. “We are adding and preserving treatment beds across the state so people can get care sooner, closer to home and in the right setting. This funding reflects what communities told us they need most.”
Their goal, according to the press release, is “to meet urgent local needs and to open as quickly as possible.”
Jefferson County will be receiving five residential treatment home beds through this project.
“Every bed we add is a safe place for an Oregonian who needs help,” Kotek said in the announcement. “Since I came into office, we have identified what types of treatment access we need and where we need it. Now, we must stay the course on closing the gap. This investment is one more step to the Oregon I know is possible – where access to mental health and addiction care is affordable and close to home.”
The beds will be located in Warm Springs and are funded by $1 million.
