St. Johns Center for Opportunity hasn't added a story.
Let's work together to strengthen our neighborhood!
"We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community... Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own." Cesar Chavez
St. Johns Center for Opportunity is working to strengthen the St. Johns neighborhood in Portland, OR through people-centered economic development and community building. We envision a thriving, diverse, and just St. Johns where everyone has access to affordable housing, benefits from economic opportunity, and is civically engaged in the community.
We engage in activities to support our mission and vision in four key areas:
- engaging in community building activities and promoting civic engagement and volunteerism;
- strengthening our local workforce by connecting residents (including youth) to local jobs and supporting them in their job seeking efforts;
- advocating for more affordable housing in the neighborhood; and
- connecting local businesses to resources and information.
Join us and help create positive and equitable change in YOUR community.
"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." ~ Barack Obama
During this season of giving, we are looking for community investors to help support our work and get involved. Funding will be used to grow our initiatives and to deepen our impact on the St. Johns neighborhood.
