On Saturday, June 24, Oregonians came together to celebrate the passage of House Bill 3409 and House Bill 3630, setting our state on the direction of historic climate justice legislation. This Climate Resilience Package, which will combat the climate crisis, protect Oregon families from extreme weather, drive down costs and grow a greener economy, was an advocacy goal of United Way of the Columbia-Willamette and many community-based organizations.
In a time where parents' voices are vital for shaping educational policies and nurturing thriving learning environments, United Way’s Early Learning Multnomah team has looked towards our Parent Accountability Council (PAC) more than ever.
