HONORING THE LEGACY OF KELLY CLARK
The Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation hosts the annual Kelly Clark Spirit Awards in honor of Kelly Clark and the thousands of lives that he touched through his compassionate service to the Portland community. The net proceeds from the philanthropic event will go toward helping combat the opioid crisis in Oregon.
Kelly Clark was a Portland lawyer well-known for his civic leadership and recovery advocacy, as well as for his successful lawsuit involving the Boy Scouts of America.
Kelly also served on the Board of Trustees of the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation's Springbrook facility in Newberg, Oregon. In that role, he consistently helped others needing addiction treatment through patient aid. He also generously provided education to those working in the treatment field by sponsoring a successful and well-attended addiction conference in Portland.
Clark died in December 2013.
