About The Position

Central City Concern is an innovative nonprofit agency providing comprehensive services to single adults and families in the Portland metro area who are impacted by homelessness, poverty and addictions. We hire people that are skilled and passionate to meet our mission to end homelessness through outcome-based strategies which support personal and community transformation. Hooper Detoxification Stabilization Center (DSC) offers compassionate treatment for people coming off drugs, alcohol or other substances. David P. Hooper, our center’s namesake, was a talented track star and aspiring politician. He also struggled with alcohol use. Hooper died in the Portland city jail in the early 1970s, when Oregon still defined alcohol addiction as a crime, not a disease. Our building bears his name as a reminder that there’s a better way to care for people struggling with substance use and addiction.
