Hawk’s Eye apartments: One year of supportive housing in Oregon
In 2024, CareOregon celebrated the opening of Hawks Eye Apartments in Seaside - a permanent supportive and workforce housing complex, developed in partnership with Columbia Pacific CCO. Today, at full capacity, Hawk's Eye is home to 17 supportive housing residents and 38 workforce housing residents, helping meet a critical need in Northwest Oregon for stable housing.
For residents in the supportive housing units, Hawks Eye offers more than just a safe place to live. There is ongoing support that includes rides to appointments, access to food resources and weekly check-ins, provided by onsite staff from Clatsop Behavioral Healthcare. This on-site peer support helps residents regain stability, rebuild confidence and reconnect with their community.
Stable housing is a foundation for health. Oregon Health Authority data shows people who maintain stable housing for one year see a 21% increase in primary care visits, an 18% decrease in emergency department visits and a 12% reduction in overall medical spending. The inspiring stories from Hawks Eye residents highlight this impact and show what's possible when investing in whole-person health care.
