Center for Intercultural Organizing dba Unite Oregon
Programs
Program 1 [2020]
Community Organizing: Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Unite Oregon has shifted much of our community engagement work to remote communications methods. We have used this opportunity to learn about and work to address the barriers this creates for many of our communities. We maintain existing and create new community connections with partner organizations, faith leaders, small businesses, leadership program graduates, and community leaders to ensure that immigrants, refugees, people of color, people living on low-incomes, people with disabilities and rural communities are able to participate in decision making and advocacy on issues that impact their lives.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.2MProgram 2 [2020]
Leadership Development:oPan Immigrant Leadership and Organizing Training (PILOT). By enhancing the skills, analysis and organizing ability of emerging immigrant and refugee leaders across cultural groups, our PILOT program builds long-term relationships between diverse immigrant and refugee communities and builds the capacity and voice of new communities to affect change.oBuilding Undergraduates through Inclusive Leadership Development (BUILD). Through BUILD, Unite Oregon provides parent programming on leadership development, issue organizing, and mobilizing. Through this collaborative approach the program is addressing systemic barriers to educational attainment for many students of color. Both PILOT and BUILD programs are designed with one guiding principal and outcome: that impacted community members learn the skills and develop tools to advocate on their own behalf, and to position themselves to help train and develop other leaders.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$532.8KProgram 3 [2020]
