On the second Friday of each month, we host our Community Wellness Fair from 10 am to 2 pm. Organizations such as Portland Street Response, Rose Haven, and the Mental Health & Addiction Association of Oregon join us to help bring in more people to access a multitude of partnerships and services, and to distribute supplies such as hygiene kits, socks, water, and/or cold weather gear. This event is held at 624 NW Couch Street, Portland, OR 97209. For more information, please contact Housing & Outreach Coordinator Cory Elia at 971-404-4013 or cory[at]groundscoreassociation[dot]org
