Outside In remains innovative to aid area homeless

Northwest 23rd Avenue in Portland’s Alphabet District is a familiar place for Desiree. She was born at Legacy Good Samaritan. She has worked at high-end boutiques in the trendy neighborhood. And she also fought the elements, stigma and desolation of being homeless there.

“I hid my homelessness. No one knew that I didn’t have anywhere to turn,” Desiree said. “Luckily, word-of-mouth led me to Outside In. Everyone on the streets knows it is a safe place to go.”

For more than 40 years, Outside In has been serving low-income adults and homeless youth in Portland. Their commitment to innovation, flexibility and dedication have earned them many accolades and acknowledgement both locally and nationally.

The organization’s clinic will receive a high quality broadband connection to continue its service and partnership within the community.
