Circuit Rider Program
Our Circuit Rider program brings professional land use advocacy and legal assistance to towns and cities outside the Portland region, including rural and underserved communities. Our Circuit Riders work to protect working lands and prevent misuse and sprawl throughout Oregon.
Portland for Everyone
Our Portland for Everyone program encourages city decision-makers to enact policies that allow abundant, diverse, and affordable housing options throughout the Portland. By diversifying housing types to include ADU's, duplexes, triplexes, and internal conversions of existing single-family homes, we can prevent sprawl and create more choices for Portlanders now and for the next generation.
