Hello everyone!
My name is Ana, and I am the Community Engagement Coordinator at a non-profit named Verde. We are dedicated to climate and environmental justice for traditionally underserved communities, specifically targeting Spanish-speakers and BIPOC individuals.
I am looking for a community event to table at in February or early March in order to share information about the Vance Vision Project, and to get input from Gresham community members. This initiative focuses on transforming approximately 90 acres of county-owned land in Gresham, Oregon. The area, historically used as a quarry and landfill, includes Vance Park and the Vance Pit Quarry. The project aims to balance the site’s utility for public agencies, park spaces, and other community benefits while addressing environmental and equity considerations.
Does anyone know of events in Gresham that could be good for this engagement? My email address is anagonzalez@verdenw.org
