Multnomah County Commission Meeting 8/24
Join RPC in telling Multnomah County leaders that enough is enough with our broken homelessness funding system. We deserve to know how our taxpayer dollars are being used and if they are making an impact on our streets.

Multnomah County Building, 501 SE Hawthorne Blvd, Portland, OR 97214, USA
About the event
As the Multnomah County Commission gears up to vote on spending $100 million (in additional or unspent SHS funds) RPC is calling for a full accounting of county money spent on homelessness services. Â And a review of how effectively those funds are actually getting people off the streets and into safer living conditions.
We need our members to show up at this meeting and let Commissioners see that our industry and our neighbors want urgent change. RSVP and we'll give you the details on submmitting testimony (written, remote, or in-person), parking, and where to meet.
PLEASE Email the Multnomah County Commission and tell them USE OUR MONEY to support programs like Bybee Lakes, a new sobering center, and additional mental health & treatement options. Â
