    The Men's Residential Center (MRC) is a Multnomah County-funded residential treatment program providing comprehensive chemical dependency and mental health services to men involved in the criminal justice system. The MRC helps men overcome a variety of challenges, rebuild their lives, and re-enter their communities as healthy, productive individuals.
