A big shout out to Ryan from Auto Pros for coming to the Village Shelter, delivering joy with his ice cream truck! Each week this summer, Ryan has come to bring the residents ice cream bars.

Donors like Ryan bring community, compassion and fun to those that we serve and we are so thankful!

Happy Summer ☀

This summer 2026 Camp HOPE theme was “Anchored in Hope.”

The seas of life are sometimes calm, and sometimes very stormy.

How do YOU stay anchored in hope, to help you stay afloat and keep moving forward?
Share in the comments below if you’d like…☺️

Remember, you are not alone. We can lean on our Hope community.

THANK YOU to an unknown camper for coloring the ship illustration that we’ve included..!

El tema de Camp HOPE para el verano de 2026 fue «Anclados en la esperanza».

Los mares de la vida a veces están en calma y otras veces muy agitados.

¿Cómo te mantienes tú anclado en la esperanza para seguir a flote y continuar avanzando?

Recuerda que no estás solo en esto; podemos apoyarnos en nuestra comunidad de Hope.

GRACIAS a un campista anónimo por colorear la ilustración del barco que hemos incluido!

Con cariño,
tu equipo de jóvenes de CWS y Camp HOPE Oregon

The affordable housing gap touches more people than you might think, survivors included. Affordable housing is a primary concern for survivors fleeing domestic violence, and there simply isn’t enough. For years, our region hasn't built or preserved enough homes to keep up with what people need. Closing that gap starts with adding over 188,000 more homes across our community.

Here's the good news: we know this works. Since 2020, public investment has helped create about 3,026 affordable homes in the tri-county region, and rental assistance has helped more than 21,000 households remain stably housed. Families staying rooted. Older adults living securely. Workers staying close to the places they rely on.

Now we need to keep going. More homes at every price point. More lower-cost homes preserved. More support to stay housed when rent rises faster than what people earn. None of that happens without continued public investment.

Women’s Equality Day is celebrated today to recognize the passing of the 19th amendment in 1920, allowing women the right to vote. The feminist movement and the anti-violence movement have always been deeply intertwined. Today, we are able to look back at all the work that women and activists have done to earn more rights for everyone, and look forward to the work that still needs to be done to create safer, healthier communities for all.

Hoy se celebra el Día de la Igualdad de la Mujer para conmemorar la aprobación de la 19.ª enmienda en 1920, que otorgó a las mujeres el derecho al voto. El movimiento feminista y el movimiento contra la violencia siempre han estado profundamente entrelazados. Hoy podemos echar la vista atrás y valorar todo el trabajo que las mujeres y las activistas han realizado para conseguir más derechos para todos, y mirar hacia el futuro pensando en el trabajo que aún queda por hacer para crear comunidades más seguras y saludables para todos.
