ATTENTION: Homelessness in Oregon is exploding to record highs, and yet despite the rhetoric, it is NOT a fault of those who are experiencing homelessness. If you are renting a home in Oregon, you need to participate in the CIFR Oregon Housing Crisis Investigation as it will help shape policy for Oregonians in Oregon’s next legislative sessions.

Welcome to Compassion Center: Patient organization and management services organization (MSO).

Compassion Center provides specialty management services to organizations dedicated to advancing professional education, patient advocacy and glocal innovations that systematically serve categorically complex, terminally ill and underserved populations with truly compassionate and viable (dis)solutions.

Compassion Center – Bridging Integrative Health & Community Support

At Compassion Center, we believe in a healthcare model that treats the whole person, not just isolated symptoms or disease. Founded as a local leader in Eugene, Oregon, Compassion Center has evolved into a globally recognized innovator in medical, mental health, and nonprofit management services, with a profound commitment to addressing healthcare disparities.

 

Our mission is to lead transformative change by bridging patients with integrative, whole-person healthcare solutions, connecting them to clinics, research institutes, specialized providers and the tools and resources they need to improve their quality of life, balance their mind-body-spirit with their lifestyles, and promote whole-ness and well-ness over disease management.

Our diverse offerings include:

  • Clinical Services & Peer Support: Compassion Center operates clinics across 18 states and provides a wide range of services, including telemedicine evaluations, exams, recommendations and referrals that improve access, affordability and inclusion. Medical cannabis recommendations, audiology and hearing aid support, and specialized care for complex health conditions, may require more than one visit, however, Compassion Center makes it a point to streamline patients to solutions in as few appointments as necessary to remain in compliance with the policies, programs and laws that we are operating within. Compassion Center’s Peer support groups serve communities dealing with PTSD, cancer, long COVID, autism, mental illness, and trauma, fostering inclusion, empowerment and shared healing so that we may heal together, as a community, sharing what works and what doesn’t work for us.
  • Education and Professional Development: Through our accredited programs, we support healthcare professionals with continuing medical education focused on integrative healthcare, endocannabinology, and patient-centered care. Compassion Center also offers educational resources for patients on safe cannabis use, mental health, and wellness. Through our educational division, Compassion Center bridges gaps in the continuum of care, improving continuity, outcomes and retention, further compounding into measurable impacts that further compound into savings, safety and a higher quality of life for those that are under our organizational care. Sharing this knowledge, Compassion Center partnered with the Integrative Providers Association (IPA) to compound and amplify educational efforts so that the entire interprofessional healthcare team is empowered to improve care in their practices.
  • Advocacy for Patient Rights: Compassion Center’s advocacy division champions the rights of patients to gain access to affordable, accessible and impartial integrative healthcare, despite geographical, economical or social barriers. Compassion Center also advocates on behalf of plant-based, all-natural, traditional, ancient and integrative therapies, and through these efforts aim to reshape healthcare, reintegrating plant-based medicines such as but not limited to medical cannabis, psilocybin and Iboga, further championing laws that result in equitable access. Our advocacy work extends to collaborating with government agencies, legislators, and other community-based organizations, striving to lower barriers to care and uphold patient freedoms. If it involves patient rights, it involves Compassion Center and the Coalition For Patient Rights (CPR).

  • Technology & Innovation in Outreach: Our website features innovative outreach tools that support project tracking, automated updates, and transparent audits of all fundraising activities. Our mobile applications help patients stay connected to their providers while providing their care teams invaluable insights into the patient’s real-time continuity, furthe leading to improved outcomes because the apps make it so people cannot “fake it” when it comes to being well. Telemedicine connects our providers with their patients in the palm of their hands, leading to improved communications, improved cooperation and a continuous chain of care throughout the entire continuum of care. These tools ensure measurable outcomes and provide accountability, helping us track and report on our impact so that we may improve, realign or redirect resources in the most logical manner given each individual situation.
  •  
  • Sponsorship and Financial Assistance Programs: We partner with local integrative providers, inclusive of but not limited to primary care physicians, functional medicine experts, endocannabinologists, audiologists, dentists, orthotists, pharmaceuticals, pharmacy benefits managers, pharmacists and device manufacturers to support and sponsor assistive technologies and prosthetics. Vital devices, such as but not limited to hearing aids, artificial limbs, dental implants and prescription glasses, for individuals who are unable to afford them. This program is expanding in pace with allocated resources, and emphasizes accessible solutions, covering essential devices through sponsorship instead of insurance or out-of-pocket costs. While each patient has to apply, the organization approves scholarships quarterly and the number of patients increases each quarter in accordance with our budget restrictions.

  • Research and Global Partnerships: Compassion Center operates research institutes worldwide that conduct interdisciplinary studies to understand healthcare disparities and pioneer patient-centered integrative approaches. From the Institute for Suicide & Homicide Prevention (ISHP) to the Syndicated Investigators Delving Into Hallucinogenics Ethically (SIDHE), and the Institute for Houselessness Prevention (IHP) to the Community-Based Clinical Cannabis Evaluation & Research Network (CBCCERN), CIFR and Compassion Center have never shied away from being the positive change we all need to see in the world with regards to healthcare, mental health, plant-based medicines and the environment. Programs like the Coalition for Patient Rights (CPR) and EarthKwik SDG further our mission of advocacy and reform even calling for cannabis descheduling and safer patient protections.

Through our Office of Accountability & Transparency, our board conducts thorough annual reviews of all programs, ensuring effective resource management, continual growth, and our capacity to serve communities in need. Compassion Center remains committed to expanding responsibly, always open to disruptive ideas that advance public service, patient advocacy, and holistic wellness.

The Compassion Center Difference: An Integrated Continuum of Care

Integrative healing requires a coordinated, team-based approach, and at the Compassion Center, we connect patients with a network of interprofessional providers who collaborate to create personalized, effective treatment plans. Our integrative model emphasizes:

  • Comprehensive Support Across Disciplines: Compassion Center partners with professionals across a wide range of specialties—including primary care, mental health, functional medicine, audiology, vision, dental and rehabilitation. By combining traditional and allopathic medicine with integrative modalities, we ensure that each patient’s care plan is just as well-rounded as it is effective.

  • Enhanced Safety and Coordination: With our interprofessional team, each provider can consider integrative healing options alongside conventional treatments, taking into account possible contraindications and reactions to ensure that patients can thrive. This approach promotes safety, especially when incorporating plant-based medicines, lifestyle adjustments, or therapeutic modalities that can influence traditional treatments.

  • Personalized, Whole-Person Healing: Our patients receive care plans tailored to their unique needs, combining medical, physical and therapeutic options like medical cannabis, dietary guidance, exercise, orthotics and prosthetics, and more. Through our network of compassionate professionals, patients can access the therapies that best support their individual wellness journey, whether they’re managing chronic conditions, mental health concerns, or categorically complex medical and integrative healthcare needs.

Why Choose Compassion Center?

Compassion Center is more than a healthcare clinic—we are an advocate for holistic, accessible care that serves as a true partner in each patient’s wellness journey. Here’s how our approach makes a difference in your care plan:

  1. Holistic Healing Modalities
    Our care extends beyond symptom relief, integrating mental health, wellness, and preventive practices that foster whole-person wellness. By focusing on integrative solutions, we empower patients to take control of their health, mental health and emotional health, providing patients resources for lasting well-being or a higher quality of life.

  2. Patient-Centered and Collaborative
    We believe in patient-centered care, where patients are active participants in their own healing. Interprofessional teams of providers and specialists coordinate on each patient’s care plan, staying attuned to interactions between treatments and ensuring that every aspect of care is working harmoniously.

  3. Educational and Supportive Resources
    Compassion Center offers resources for both patients and providers to learn more about integrative health care and mental health options, contraindications, and effective practices. Patients are equipped with the information they need to make informed decisions, while providers can continuously improve their own approaches through ongoing education and peer support that openly collaborates on redirecting healthcare for the betterment of all.

  4. Advanced Safety Through Team-Based Oversight
    Integrative health and mental health, particularly with the inclusion of plant-based or alternative therapies, requires careful management and professional oversight. By using a collaborative model, Compassion Center safeguards against contraindications and enhances the efficacy of all treatment plans, whether pharmaceutical or holistic.

  5. Accountability and Measurable Impact
    Our commitment to transparency and accountability guides every program at Compassion Center. Through our annual reviews by the Office of Accountability & Transparency, we track the effectiveness of each of our program services, adapting to emerging needs and trends, and ensure our patients benefit from the highest standards of integrative health care, mental health and peer-support.
