We need your help. Lawmakers are considering adding another $10 million for Oregon’s Resilience Hubs and Networks. This funding could be lifesaving in the face of worsening ice storms, heat waves, wildfires, and wildfire smoke. Will you email lawmakers urging them to fund Community Resilience Hubs?

OR Lawmakers have made the impacts of the tariffs and funding cuts coming from Washington clear through their budget projection. During this time of uncertainty we must ensure that we build resilient communities that can weather the proverbial and literal storms coming our way.
