SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITY
Each year, we assist more than 10,000 people experiencing homelessness. Last year, we help place nearly 900 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 Jeremy
At 22 years old, Jeremy found himself searching for a sense of purpose and direction. He decided to join the Navy and proudly served our country for more than two decades. However, after leaving the service, he faced an uphill battle.
For Jeremy, home was once a car shared with his cat, Baby Girl. Now, they have a comfortable apartment with room for both to grow roots and breathe freely.
