Our Just Future envisions vibrant, healthy neighborhoods where all people can share in the security, hopes and advantages of a thriving, supportive community.

Our Just Future counters the forces that keep people and communities in poverty by building relationships and assets that create opportunity — today and for future generations. Here’s how:

We partner with people and communities impacted by poverty so they can achieve long-term housing and economic security.

We invest in affordable housing and community assets that contribute to strong, inclusive neighborhoods.

We advocate with our community for policies and investments that expand housing and economic opportunity, eliminate wealth inequality and end poverty.

East Portland/East Multnomah County, Oregon, is our home and the heart of our investments, advocacy and programs.

By volunteering with us in the capacity of kitchen aid or other volunteer opportunities, you are actively providing mutual aid to your neighbors! Your efforts help to create and maintain networks of support that enable all of us to work towards equity, liberation, and community care!

Volunteers must be 13 years of age or older to participate in this opportunity; any volunteer under age 18 must attend with a parent or adult chaperone.
