Program Overview
Through the BHRN Program (formerly known as Measure 110), OHA administers grants to tribes and organizations in every Oregon county to support individuals across the state with substance use disorders or harmful substance use. The program established BHRNs which are made up of one or more entities in each county working together to provide comprehensive, community-based services to people seeking support with substance use issues.
Each BHRN must provide trauma-informed, culturally specific, and linguistically responsive services. These services are divided into six service areas:
- Screenings,
- Behavioral health assessments,
- Peer counseling and support,
- Harm reduction,
- Low-barrier substance use treatment and
- Transitional and supportive housing.
The BHRN Program is overseen by OHA and the Oversight and Accountability Council (OAC). Until Jan 1, 2026, the OAC acts as the decision-making body, determining how funds are distributed. After Jan 1, 2026, the OAC will advise OHA on funding decisions.
