Default mental health care in Portland?

I am graduating soon with my master's degree in social work and thinking about moving to Portland and looking for a job in the mental health field. Does anyone have any experience with the mental health system in Portland or pointers for me?
much appreciated!

The big local company that works with the city & county governments is Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare (or something like that - working from memory). They've had some financial problems recently; don't know if the situation is resolved.
