About Coda
Our Mission
Through patient-centered care, community partnerships, and advocacy for effective public policy, CODA is dedicated to treating people whose health and quality of life are compromised by alcohol and drugs.
Our Vision
We envision communities in which substance use and mental health conditions are recognized as public health issues that are preventable and treatable. We envision a society in which people with histories of substance use and mental health conditions, people at risk for these conditions, and people in recovery are valued and treated with dignity and respect. We envision a society in which stigma, prejudices, discrimination and other barriers to recovery are eliminated.

From The Director
Three Years in the Making
Beaverton Recovery Center (BRC) opened in November 2025, after three years of effort. It’s difficult to describe how it feels to see this project complete. It feels both new and like something we’ve been doing all along. I suppose that’s because we are made for it.
We knew CODA would be deeply impacted by the BRC, and we invested in ourselves while also planning our growth. What is apparent now is how much the landscape has changed in that time. Three years ago, Behavioral Health, Medicaid, and CODA all found themselves experiencing a windfall of resources and acknowledgement. They were long overdue. But today, we live a different environment. Three years has proven to be a lifetime. Those internal investments? Not just a good idea. They built the platform on which we will continue to learn and grow.
2025 saw many ideas come to fruition. Looking to 2026, more change will be essential. We are, and remain, CODA at our core. My confidence in that gives me great hope, even when forces are beyond our control. Our values and our strengths got us through this year, and they are exactly why we will thrive in the next.

Statistics
As we work to fully integrate our services, many individuals access more than one program as they work on their recovery.
A look at the numbers of patients who used one or more CODA services this year:
Patient Demographics
CODA is committed to providing high-quality care to all community members in need. 2025 saw us increase our percentages of patients in both Washington and Clackamas Counties, due in part to initiatives enacted internally and in the broader community.
Revenue Sources
We are grateful for the solid support we continue to receive from local, state, and national partners. Generous donations from foundations and community members help round out the services we can provide.
Did you know?
CODA has operated in Washington County for more than 30 years. Below are some of our milestones in providing an array of services in the County, including detox, residential, and outpatient programs.
- Tigard Recovery Center opened on July 1st, 1995
- We began providing Outpatient DUII Services in Tigard in 2002
- Our Stepping Stones transitional homes reuniting women and their children in foster care began in 2007; we purchased our current locations in 2011 and 2012
Internal Initiatives
2025 was a big year for CODA. Even as we successfully completed the development, build, and launch of our new Beaverton Recovery Center facility (see below), the organization embarked on significant improvements that affected CODA as a whole. In just a few examples:
Patient Support Services
Our new Patient Support Services ensures that every CODA program enjoys the same, robust supports—in site operations, food services, admissions, scheduling, and more—allowing our clinical staff to focus on the critical work they do directly with patients.
Advances in Opioid Treatment Programs
CODA’s Opioid Treatment Programs (OTP) have made advances both in working with our community partners and improving internal practices, all to better serve our patients.
- The Portland OTP brought on board a medication delivery nurse specifically to arrange and deliver methadone to the Clackamas County Jail site (where we eventually will have a medication unit placed in the jail itself), and
- The OTP process necessary to re-start an established patient on medication was streamlined, lowering another barrier for patients to continue medications seamlessly.
In The Broader Community
On Monday, November 17th, the Center for Addictions Triage and Treatment (CATT) Beaverton Recovery Center (BRC) opened its doors. The culmination of six years of planning, fundraising, program development, and partnership, the BRC will provide a total of 86 beds for new addiction treatment services in Washington County. Leadership from CODA participated in the highly collaborative project since the very beginning.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better partner,” said Kristin Burke, Special Projects Supervisor and project manager for the CATT, which also includes the Hillsboro Recovery Center. “CODA shared our vision of no-wrong door, empirically driven services, and the belief that our community members deserve having a program like the CATT available to support them, their friends, and their family members.”
Owned by Washington County and operated by CODA, the BRC provides patients withdrawal management, also known as detox, and two large male- and female- designated residential wings, with sobering and transitional services to come. The new programming resulted in CODA growing our organization by nearly a third, requiring significant restructuring and the hiring of dozens of new staff.
“We believe we’ve created something special that will honor the people we serve and give our staff a welcoming place to work,” said CODA Executive Director Alison Noice. “While it is a significant expansion for CODA, it aligns perfectly with our vision of a fully integrated, readily accessible continuum of addictions care.”
