Healthy Living

At the heart of our well-being initiatives is the transformative Coast to Cascades Culinary Health Education & Fitness (C.H.E.F.) Program. Dedicated to Improving the Health of the Next Generation, C.H.E.F. introduces evidence-based practices and innovative approaches to inspire healthier lives in Lincoln, East Linn, and rural Benton counties.

Oral Health

To address the oral health needs in our region, the Coast to Cascades Community Wellness Network and other community partners have worked over the years to educate the community on the benefits of good oral health and improve access to dental services through extensive collaboration.

Parenting

As a collaborative hub aligned with the Parenting Success Network, we are excited to introduce you to a community where parents, families, guardians, and community partners can access valuable resources, share insights, and build effective parenting skills.

Substance Use Disorder

To address the ongoing substance and opioid use disorder epidemic across the United States and in Oregon, the CCCWN has received over $4.5 million in federal grant funds to provide prevention, treatment and recovery services across Linn, Benton and Lincoln counties.

Violence Prevention

The Violence Prevention program is dedicated to understanding three critical focus areas: child abuse, domestic/intimate partner violence, and human trafficking within our community.
