Neighborhood Program


The Neighborhood Resource Center includes coordination of Portland’s “neighborhood network.” This nationally recognized neighborhood system is made up of 95 recognized neighborhood associations and seven neighborhood district coalition offices located throughout the city. These district coalitions and offices provide support and technical assistance to the volunteer-based neighborhood associations, community groups and individual citizen-activists.

Neighborhood Involvement Program

Neighborhood involvement outreach specialists work with the district coalitions, offices, and neighborhood associations to coordinate efforts, provide technical assistance, coordinate public involvement efforts with City Bureaus and other organizations. ONI works to create community-building partnerships, provide technical assistance to other City bureaus’outreach and involvement efforts, and trains community members in leadership and community organizing skills.
