SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITY
Each year, we assist more than 9,000 people experiencing homelessness. In any given year, we help place more than 1,000 people into affordable housing - and then support them in retaining that housing.
55 Years of Service
For over 55 years, Transition Projects has delivered life-saving and life-changing assistance to some of Portland’s most vulnerable residents. Whether by helping a homeless veteran and her family find housing, sheltering hundreds of people each night with nowhere else to turn, or opening new pathways to employment, Transition Projects represents an invaluable part of Portland’s social fabric.
Our Work in Action
Our team works to engage folks at all levels of their journey from homelessness to housing. Whether it's getting critical support to our unhoused neighbors on the street, providing shelter for folks to reset and set their sights on housing, or bringing online innovative, deeply affordable housing solutions, we meet and support the many needs of the community we serve.
Meet Rei
Rei became homeless at the age of 15 years old. For years, they lived on the street, in cars, or couch surfing with friends. This was until Rei met a case manager at Transition Projects who provided them with the resources and a plan. But more importantly, Rei shared with us, “Transition Projects connected me with something greater: someone who believed in me.”
