At Fora Health, we know recovery is strengthened through connection. From peers and family members to treatment providers and community partners, supportive relationships can make all the difference in helping individuals find hope, healing, and lasting recovery.

Last week, we gathered with community partners, supporters, staff, and board members for Fora Health's 2026 Annual Meeting.
Together, we reflected on the lives changed through recovery, celebrated milestones from the past year, and looked ahead to the work still to come.

A big part of our meeting included a tour of not only our building, but also Fora Home, which will be opening late this year.

We wanted to give a big thank you, especially to our community partners, including but not limited to: Doyal Smith, Cindy Becker, Clackamas County Behavioral Health Department Director, Karen Kern, Clackamas County Commissioner Chair, Craig Roberts, Clackamas County Commissioner, Paul Savas, Lauren Gerich, Joselyn Orellana-Wilson, Alice King and many more.

Recovery is possible because of a community that believes in it. Thank you to everyone who supports our mission and helps make recovery accessible for individuals and families across Oregon.

At Fora Health, we believe healing happens through connection, structure, and moments of real joy — and our partnership with GTD Go The Distance (GTD) brings all three to life for the patients in our care.

Since 2019, GTD has been leading twice‑weekly runs with our residential patients, creating a space where movement becomes a tool for grounding, confidence, and community. These runs give patients a chance to step outside the intensity of treatment and reconnect with their bodies, their peers, and their own sense of possibility.
