Date and time
Location
Online event
Portlanders are eager to find ways to move forward, to address the crises we all face, and how to revitalize Portland.
About this event
Join us on March 16th for a panel of speakers and a discussion on revitalizing Portland's urban core and reenergizing our communities to continue to move Portland Forward.
Like much of the rest of our nation, over the last year Portland has faced unprecedented and historic changes, and despite the burden of multiple crises, wearing us down, and leaving many with a sense of hopelessness, we still saw incremental steps of progress made, toward a better future for Portlanders.
Our first event this year is a discussion about how we move forward, how we take the reins of our recovery and ensure its success for all Portlanders.We will be joined by Ciara Pressler speaking about the changing nature of workplace and how that will impact the urban core; Executive Director of Street Roots, Kaia Sand on houselessness and opportunities we have to compassionately address housing challenges; Jarrett Walker on transportation and how it might shape and evolve the experience of the city; and Ady Leverette from Business for a Better Portland to speak about the role local businesses will play in reshaping the urban core.
No matter where you live, or who you love you can change your world, start locally, activate your inner advocate with us and let’s move Portland Forward together.
