We continue to take proactive and precautionary measures to guard against contraction and spread of COVID-19.

New Community in Basalt Creek
CPAH recently received funding from the Washington County Metro Affordable Housing Bond to build 115 units in Tualatin, on 4.66 acres of land purchased earlier this year. We anticipate construction beginning in 2022 and are looking forward to building new relationships with the City of Tualatin!
Joyce Hotel Renovation
CPAH will completely renovate the Joyce Hotel in downtown Portland, providing 66 units of Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) for people who have been homeless, are vulnerable, and who need both subsidized housing and services to be successful. Voluntary supportive services will be offered onsite through a collaboration of service providers: Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare, NARA, and Cascade AIDS Project. The Joyce will also include ground-floor commercial space for women-owned, minority-owned and emerging small businesses through Prosper Portland.
Resident Services
CPAH staff focuses on connecting residents with housing stabilization services in order to keep them safe in their housing and avoid evictions whenever possible.
Resident services staff coordinate community building activities at each of CPAH’s housing sites. Bringing residents together, providing community space, and supporting a broader network is one way CPAH supports our residents and the community.
Supporting families is a long tradition at CPAH. We provide After School Programs, Summer Youth Camps, and Backpacks and School Supplies to children living at our properties.
CPAH started our Resident Advisory Committee (RAC) in 2017. Our RAC represents resident voices, in addition to creating leadership opportunities for residents. The goal of the RAC is to support residents in coordinating building activities and to set service priorities.
CPAH’s Thriving in Place Program aims to help residents aged 55 and older live independently as long as possible.
CPAH is always thinking about new and better ways to serve our residents. Currently, we’re creating a Workforce Development Program and Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) services for our most vulnerable residents.
The opportunities I've had thanks to CPAH and their service partners really just showed me that I really can do this no matter what. Over the years I've gained independence and I've been able to take care of my girls.

Because of CPAH, and their affordable housing and programs, more families have safe homes and can build successful futures.
- MARYAM BAKI
I'm on a limited income and I wondered where do I live, what do I do. I no longer own my own home, I'm not Section 8, and finding affordable housing for 55 and older is extremely difficult…Finding this housing has been an incredible experience.
- CANDACE NOWIERSKI
I feel affordable housing is important for those of us that just need to get that one most basic need met for shelter.
