North Portland Doers Gathering | Monday 1/24 - 7:00-8:30 pm
You are invited
North Portland Doers Gathering
1/24/2022 7:00-8:30 pm
Hope to see you on Zoom.
The Doers Gathering is celebrating their one year anniversary!
This month we will hear a presentation from Brandi Tuck from Portland Homeless Family Solutions.
A brief description of the talk:Trauma Informed Practice is an organizational structure and treatment framework that involves understanding, recognizing, and responding to the effects of all types of trauma. Trauma Informed Care also emphasizes physical, psychological, and emotional safety for both clients and staff, and helps trauma survivors rebuild a sense of control and empowerment. In this workshop, we’ll learn about trauma, see how it shows up in people’s bodies and behavior, and review strategies for helping people heal, build dignity, restore power, and promote autonomy.
If you have not completed the following brief survey, please do so! We are gathering information for an interactive resource guide.
Who are the Doers? Our focus will be highlighting organizations and individuals engaged in houselessness, food security, housing and behavioral health. Learn about the work being done in the North Portland community to fill gaps, provide resources, and humanity to our neighbors.
Come learn. Come share. Come celebrate positive steps in the right direction.Come and see how you might be able to help. Come and see how your community can be served.
Mary Jaron Kelley is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Give feedback: New public trash cans in North Portland
Via the Public Trash Can Program:
https://www.portland.gov/public-trash-cans/north-portland-public-trash-cans
In Spring 2022, the City will be adding new public trash cans throughout North Portland.
These 100 new cans will increase the total number of City-provided and serviced trash cans in North Portland to 215.
Live or work in North Portland? We want to hear from you!
We are actively seeking feedback from people who live or work in North Portland on where the new cans should (or shouldn’t) be located. Please fill out this short survey or send comments to Quintin Bauer by February 1, 2022.
If you would like to receive email updates on when and where the cans will be installed, contact Quintin Bauer.
Give feedback on where to add new cans
Area where new trash cans will be added
The new cans will be added in the area from the Willamette River on the West, city limits on the North, Burnside Street on the South, and Williams Avenue on the East, as well as in the Lloyd District from the Willamette River on the West, Broadway on the North, Burnside on the South, and NE 15th Avenue on the East.
Cans can be placed on public sidewalks, including near businesses, schools, and intersections. (The cans cannot be placed in parking lots or other private property.)
About the trash cans
The 65-gallon trash cans are 4.5-feet tall and take up a 3x3-foot space on the ground. In some cases, such as narrow sidewalks, a smaller 35-gallon can may be used.
The cans have a side attachment for deposit beverage bottles, which can be easily collected by community members. The art on the outside of the cans will be designed by local artists, chosen in partnership with local arts groups.
The trash cans will be emptied twice a week by a women or minority-owned trash hauler (currently being selected).

Update: December 20th 2021
Arbor Lodge Shelter is doing well. Many neighbors have stepped up to bring food. Thank you!
They do need things from this list to help those living there:
*. books to read
*. board games
*. playing cards
*. art supplies
*. non sugar snacks like nuts, chips
*. warm hats and socks
You can deliver these items anytime/day between 8am and 6pm. Just pull into the parking lot, park and walk to the front door - near the intersection. Someone will be at that door and welcome you and give you thanks for your donation. The Shelter is at the old Rite Aid building, on the SE corner of Lombard and Denver.
Thank you for considering our new neighbors.
