Thank you Catholic Charities for inviting us to your teams to provide a half-day training on domestic violence and supporting survivors! We joined their immigrant and refugee support and housing teams, and together we were able to learn from each other on how to best show up for survivors engaging in services.

We love being able to collaborate with folks from across our communities, improving all our responses to survivors together.

If you’re interested in having us join your workplace for a training, email our Training & Outreach Manager at [email protected]

¡Gracias, Catholic Charities, por invitarnos a sus equipos para impartir una capacitación de medio día sobre violencia doméstica y apoyo a las sobrevivientes! Nos reunimos con sus equipos de apoyo a inmigrantes y refugiados y de vivienda, y juntos pudimos aprender unos de otros sobre la mejor manera de apoyar a las sobrevivientes que acuden a nuestros servicios.

Nos encanta poder colaborar con personas de todas nuestras comunidades para mejorar juntos la forma en que atendemos a las sobrevivientes.

Si te interesa que vayamos a tu lugar de trabajo para impartir una capacitación, envía un correo electrónico a nuestro Gerente de Capacitación y Divulgación a [email protected]

Looking back on a great summer! CWS Youth Services was happy to be part of the North Clackamas School District's summer programming for a 2nd year in a row as a community partner.

The CWS Youth Team facilitated A Window Between Worlds art workshops as an afternoon elective that attending middle-schoolers could choose. It was a relaxed and supportive space to discuss healthy friendship and communication skills, have fun, and get creative!

We appreciate NCSD and ALL of our school district partnerships throughout Clackamas County!

¡Recordando un verano increíble! Los Servicios Juveniles de CWS se alegraron de formar parte, por segundo año consecutivo, de la programación de verano del Distrito Escolar de North Clackamas como socio comunitario.

El equipo juvenil de CWS impartió los talleres de arte «Una ventana entre mundos» como una actividad optativa de la tarde que los estudiantes de secundaria que asistieron pudieron elegir. ¡Fue un espacio relajado y de apoyo para hablar sobre la amistad sana y las habilidades de comunicación, divertirse y dar rienda suelta a la creatividad!

¡Agradecemos al NCSD y a TODAS nuestras alianzas con los distritos escolares de todo el condado de Clackamas!

A big shout out to Ryan from Auto Pros for coming to the Village Shelter, delivering joy with his ice cream truck! Each week this summer, Ryan has come to bring the residents ice cream bars.

Happy Summer ☀

This summer 2026 Camp HOPE theme was “Anchored in Hope.”

The seas of life are sometimes calm, and sometimes very stormy.

How do YOU stay anchored in hope, to help you stay afloat and keep moving forward?
Share in the comments below if you’d like…☺️

Remember, you are not alone. We can lean on our Hope community.

THANK YOU to an unknown camper for coloring the ship illustration that we’ve included..!

Love from,
your CWS Youth Team and Camp HOPE Oregon

El tema de Camp HOPE para el verano de 2026 fue «Anclados en la esperanza».

Los mares de la vida a veces están en calma y otras veces muy agitados.

¿Cómo te mantienes tú anclado en la esperanza para seguir a flote y continuar avanzando?

Recuerda que no estás solo en esto; podemos apoyarnos en nuestra comunidad de Hope.

GRACIAS a un campista anónimo por colorear la ilustración del barco que hemos incluido!

Con cariño,
tu equipo de jóvenes de CWS y Camp HOPE Oregon

The affordable housing gap touches more people than you might think, survivors included. Affordable housing is a primary concern for survivors fleeing domestic violence, and there simply isn’t enough. For years, our region hasn't built or preserved enough homes to keep up with what people need. Closing that gap starts with adding over 188,000 more homes across our community.

Here's the good news: we know this works. Since 2020, public investment has helped create about 3,026 affordable homes in the tri-county region, and rental assistance has helped more than 21,000 households remain stably housed. Families staying rooted. Older adults living securely. Workers staying close to the places they rely on.

Now we need to keep going. More homes at every price point. More lower-cost homes preserved. More support to stay housed when rent rises faster than what people earn. None of that happens without continued public investment.

Women’s Equality Day is celebrated today to recognize the passing of the 19th amendment in 1920, allowing women the right to vote. The feminist movement and the anti-violence movement have always been deeply intertwined. Today, we are able to look back at all the work that women and activists have done to earn more rights for everyone, and look forward to the work that still needs to be done to create safer, healthier communities for all.

Hoy se celebra el Día de la Igualdad de la Mujer para conmemorar la aprobación de la 19.ª enmienda en 1920, que otorgó a las mujeres el derecho al voto. El movimiento feminista y el movimiento contra la violencia siempre han estado profundamente entrelazados. Hoy podemos echar la vista atrás y valorar todo el trabajo que las mujeres y las activistas han realizado para conseguir más derechos para todos, y mirar hacia el futuro pensando en el trabajo que aún queda por hacer para crear comunidades más seguras y saludables para todos.
