Thrive Central Oregon’s mission is to connect individual needs to community resources. 

Thrive Central Oregon meets families and individuals – our neighbors – in public spaces to connect them with the assistance they are looking for. There are many resources in Central Oregon, but the landscape can be difficult to navigate alone. We connect with folks and utilize a holistic, individual-led approach to services, and in doing so we help access affordable housing and financial security in a sustainable and trauma-informed way.

In 2024, Thrive assisted over 2,000 households in connecting to needed resources. From locating food banks to applying for Social Security, tfrom understanding affordable housing to navigating health insurance, Thrive works to meet whatever need folks come to our services with. In the past 12 months, Thrive Community Outreach Advocates have helped 184 households move into sustainable housing!

Anyone can utilize Thrive services through one of our 15 weekly drop-in times, by email, or by phone. We have drop-in locations across Central Oregon’s 3 counties, and are free of charge.
