Holst Architecture has been selected to provide design services for Washington County Behavioral Health’s Center for Addictions Triage and Treatment buildings. The Beaverton facility, at 17911 N.W. Evergreen Place, has been secured and another location in Hillsboro is in progress. Both will involve significant remodeling and reconfiguration.
Costs to acquire and renovate the two buildings is estimated at $41.3 million. Capital funds will come from county behavioral health reserves, Measure 110 grant funds, and residential treatment development dollars. After receiving an unexpected grant of $5 million from CareOregon late last month, the county is now just $2.6 million shy of being fully funded.
鈥淲e were impressed by Holst’s experience designing Fora Health’s new treatment center in Portland and their commitment to engaging the surrounding community throughout the design and build process,鈥 Kristin Burke, CATT project manager, stated in a press release.
WCBH has selected CODA Inc., one of Oregon’s largest nonprofit substance use treatment programs, to provide intensive services at the Beaverton location.
The center will add 44 residential treatment beds to the county’s system of care and an additional 42 beds for sobering, detox and stabilization. County planners expect the CATT to open with some services by the end of 2024, with the remaining services phased in throughout 2025.
