Home Description:
Columbia Foster Care Home is located in NE Portland, Oregon. There are five private rooms and two large bathrooms for the residents. Each resident's room has cable hook-up for TV. We have a living room with a large TV, and a dining room where home cooked meals are served; residents' meal preferences are taken into consideration. Families are encouraged to participate as often as possible with residents' daily activities.
