New residential treatment facility opens in Turner
A new nine-bed residential treatment facility has opened in Turner, the Oregon Health Authority announced Nov. 5. The facility, called Sanctuary, is for people who have mental health needs, including forensic behavioral health. Sanctuary received $239,677 in funding through House Bill 2059. That was part of a $65 million package to increase behavioral health capacity in Oregon. The OHA said adult bed capacity in Oregon has expanded to 350 new licensed residential beds and 488 new non-licensed beds with the funding. “Our commitment is to provide individualized, trauma-informed mental health care that honors each person’s identity, culture and lived experience,” Sanctuary Director Moses Malibet said in a release. “Working alongside OHA and community partners, we want to create a place where belonging is part of care, and every resident has support to pursue a meaningful life.” Bill Poehler covers Marion and Polk County for the Statesman Journal.
