Rebecca Schilling, the LEAD program manager for the Hood River/Wasco County consortium, reported the program has limited staffing and funding: the two counties share $600,000 total under the current award ($150,000 per county per year), which prevents hiring an additional outreach navigator. She said since March 2025 the program had received 76 referrals, enrolled 15 new participants and had about 6 active participants and six alumni. Schilling noted short-term use of Hood River opioid settlement funds and emphasized seeking additional competitive grant funds for the 2027–29 biennium.
