Join us to hear from WeShine as they give us an update on their East Portland work supporting our neighbors.
WeShine stands for Welcoming, Empowering, Safe Habitation Initiative with Neighborhood Engagement. Their villages are located in residential neighborhoods, with wraparound services and robust volunteer engagement. In conjunction with other types of shelter, WeShine is an important component of the region’s shelter ecosystem. And, WeShine villages help reduce the region’s unmanaged encampments.
WeShine designs, builds, and operates neighborhood-based micro-villages that provide safe, transitional shelter and services where vulnerable, unsheltered adults in the Portland metropolitan area can live as they prepare to become successful tenants in permanent, affordable housing.
