Southeast Uplift Neighborhood Program is a non-profit coalition of 20 neighborhoods in southeast and northeast Portland south of Interstate 84. We provide free technical assistance in citizen participation, community development, organizing and urban planning.
Mission
To assist the citizens and neighborhood associations of Southeast Portland to create communities which are livable, socially diverse, safe and vital. Southeast Uplift provides an organizational structure and forum to empower citizens to effectively resolve issues of livability and community development.
Southeast Uplift was founded in 1968 to halt construction of a freeway that would have divided southeast Portland, displaced homes and led to further socioeconomic deterioration.
Our Board of Directors is governed by volunteers who represent neighborhood and business associations as well as community-based organizations.
