With all the difficult work of planning and implementation behind us, it’s hard to believe it’s been three months since CODA’s first Oregon coast location, Seaside Recovery Center, opened its doors. Welcoming 100 patients in our first three months of operating was an important first goal for CODA. Meeting that goal means we’re meeting the needs of a new community. We are incredibly grateful for the support we have received from so many, and for our amazing staff who rolled up their sleeves to get the clinic up and running. This is an exciting new chapter for CODA. Please join me in celebrating a new era of compassionate, evidence based care to Clatsop County!
