Sisters of the Road

Mission
We build authentic relationships and alleviate the hunger of isolation in an atmosphere of nonviolence and gentle personalism that nurtures the whole individual, while seeking systemic solutions that reach the roots of homelessness and poverty in order to end them forever.
Bottom Line for Portland
In the face of Portland's affordability crisis, we strive to mobilize a grassroots community around violent policies impacting our unsheltered neighbors.
