HereTogether

Mission

HereTogether brings together a sector-crossing coalition of 250+ organizations, service and health care providers, businesses, elected leaders, community advocates, and members of the faith community, all united by a shared vision: a Portland where everyone has a safe place to call home. We are uniting our community around solutions while advocating every day, at every level, for our unhoused neighbors and our communities who care about ending our region’s housing and homelessness crisis.

Bottom Line for Portland

Homelessness is complex, but solutions exist—and they work. The Supportive Housing Services (SHS) measure is delivering real, lasting impact for Portland, bringing hundreds of millions of dollars into effective housing and homelessness services since voters passed it in 2020. As the coalition that developed and championed the measure, HereTogether serves as an independent watchdog and trusted bridge to ensure these historic investments are used effectively on evidence-based solutions that help our neighbors move indoors and stay housed.

Quote

“With HereTogether’s steadfast support and advocacy, Path Home secured crucial funding that allowed us to provide stable housing to families staying in our Family Village shelter. Together, we are making a tangible impact—transforming lives one family at a time.”

— Brandi Tuck, Executive Director of Path Home, HereTogether Coalition Member
