Project

The Center for Public Interest Design (CPID) at Portland State University is working on an asset-based community development project in the Tigard Triangle. To begin our community engagement, we organized a collaboration workshop for local service providers. The workshop provided an opportunity for service providers to identify community assets, needs, and challenges, while also creating a collaboration strategy/agreement among attendees for a better-served existing and future community. This forum is intended to be a catalyst for future community engagement.

Location
