PSU Homelessness and Housing Survey
Via PSU:
Hello! We are researchers at Portland State University, and we’re interested in learning more about homelessness and housing in your neighborhood. Please take 10 to 15 minutes to complete an anonymous online survey about different types of housing and services in your neighborhood that can support people experiencing homelessness. This information can help us know how people in different neighborhoods in Portland think and feel about homelessness and how we can develop programs to address homelessness in your neighborhood.
The only requirements for participation are being at least 18 years old and living in the City of Portland.
Thanks for your participation!
Survey Link (can only be completed once): https://portlandstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2uwy77IPCCkjtb0
The survey will close on August 3, 2021.
Please contact homelessness@pdx.edu if you have questions, or to learn more.

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Join me in distributing informational flyers about Multnomah County’s COVID-19 vaccine clinics on Tuesday, July 20 from 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm in the Arbor Lodge Neighborhood. Supporting our community to get vaccinated is critical --- flyer distribution to our local businesses is a key tool.
We will meet at the former Rite Aid at 1952 North Lombard Ave in the parking lot; masks are optional but please bring one for businesses that require them. Bottled water and supplies will be provided for all volunteers.
Please RSVP here if you’d like to join me in spreading the word about vaccine opportunities.
