Unite Oregon is a membership organization led by people of color, immigrants and refugees, rural communities, and people experiencing poverty. They work across Oregon to build a unified, intercultural movement for justice. United Oregon works across six key pillars to advance immigrant, refugee, and BIPOC communities in Portland: Climate Justice, Equitable Economic Development, Housing Justice, Health Equity, Education Equity, and Reimagining Community Safety.
From their small business incubator program launching 40 new immigrant, refugee, BIPOC small businesses in East Portland, to their immigrant and refugee-led community gardens in Knott Park, to their Black Policy Table, which brings together Black community leaders in Oregon, Unite Oregon provides leadership development programs to train over 100 immigrant, refugee, and emerging leaders of color a year to tackle the issues that most affect their lives - from climate change to affordable housing.
Through their Community Development & Economic Prosperity Program, Unite Oregon has launched an economic justice program to build and retain wealth for systemically and institutionally excluded communities - namely immigrants, refugees, Black and Indigenous communities, and People of Color. The Community Development & Economic Prosperity Program seeks to develop and pilot an economic ecosystem that generates wealth, creates assets, helps community entrepreneurs develop businesses, and reinvests resources to ensure sustainability and stability for our communities. As part of this initiative, Unite Oregon is working to collaboratively develop a community- based, community-centered strategy for equitable development in East Portland and the Southwest Corridor. For more information, contact Leslie Lum, Community Development Director at ''leslie@uniteoregon.org'' . +
The United States Mission is a non-profit, interdenominational organization that operates long-term, transitional facilities in a number of cities including Portland. Residents must be over 18 and willing and able to work. They do not accept sex offenders or those with ongoing medical or mental health issues. Each applicant is approved on a case by case basis. Some of their facilities have space for both men and women, while others are for men only.
Residents receive a shared room, meals, and the amenities of living in a residential setting. They are required to participate in the Mission self-help work program, performing all the tasks necessary to operate their program and facilities. This includes office work, cooking, driving, as well as administration and engagement as Field Emissaries who represent the Mission to the public by means of door-to-door solicitation.
