Summer outreach is in full swing – where to find us this July!
The Portland Parks Foundation are debuting their outdoor gathering, Paseo, on July 15-17th!

Please consider joining us at Paseo next weekend and come by our booth to find out more about our programming and upcoming events.
We will have tons of free TriMet Youth Passes (ages 7-17) to giveaway, so please spread the word! These passes are part of TriMet’s Get Oregon Moving program and are valid on all TriMet services and Portland Streetcar through August 31, 2022.
On Saturday, July 16th, we’d like to invite DSP supporters to an artists’ conversation moderated by our founder, Teressa Raiford, as part of Portland Art Museum’s new exhibition opening, Perspectives. This panel discussion will feature several Portland photographers sharing their reflections and images from the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020. Join us at Whitsell Auditorium from 2 to 3pm. Tickets can be found here – free to the public!
Cascadia Healthcare and the Eliot Neighborhood Association will be hosting a Job Fair on August 2nd from 10am – 12pm at Dawson Park.
