For more than two decades of dedicated work with the Alano Club of Portland, Brent Canode brought such abundant love, courage, and spirit to everything he did. As a tireless and fearless advocate for those suffering from addiction, Brent’s inspiring leadership shined through in thousands of lives touched—and thousands of lives saved.

With every part of his being, Brent believed.

He believed in the power of humanity, community, and connection to help people in crisis move toward healthier, brighter days ahead. He believed everyone possesses the potential to recover—with the aid of safe, inclusive spaces that breathe acceptance, empowerment, and hope.

Just as Brent was a generous advocate for the recovery community, we will remain strong advocates for the many on the path to lasting recovery and change.

Will you be Alano's next source of hope?
