What is the CATT?
The Center for Addictions Triage and Treatment (CATT) is a project to increase addictions treatment capacity in Washington County. When fully operational, it will add 86 new treatment beds, a peer drop-in center and many other features. Our plan is to create a comprehensive center for substance use treatment that is accessible and responsive to our community.

Project development
In 2019, Washington County began exploring the idea of creating new treatment services in the area to make access to substance use care easier for our community members. Six years later, the Center for Addictions Triage and Treatment (CATT) has opened as a place where adults struggling with problem substance use can get services and supports.
Throughout the project's development, we've prided ourselves in the fact that the CATT was developed by our community, for our community. It provides rapid access to multiple types of substance use treatment, including:
- Assessment and triage
- Sobering
- Withdrawal management (detox)
- Residential treatment
- Outpatient treatment
- Transition services
- Health services
- Peer drop-in center
- Crisis services
- Co-located supports
Holst Architecture completed the design. R&H Construction led the renovation and construction.
CATT provider agencies
The CATT is a partnership among several community-based organizations and Washington County. CODA, Inc. will be the provider for intensive services at our Beaverton Recovery Center site when it opens in November. LifeWorks NW continues to deliver crisis services, and Solutions Group NW provides outpatient services at our Hillsboro Recovery Center site. The Peer Company (formerly Mental Health & Addiction Association of Oregon) operates a peer drop-in center at the Hillsboro CATT site. Project Homeless Connect provides an access point for housing for folks served by the CATT and acts as a liaison and consultant for the other CATT providers. You can read more about the locations and services we offer on the "More Information" page.
