Oregon Opportunity Network is a statewide association of nonprofit affordable housing and community development organizations that provide housing and economic opportunity for working families, people with disabilities, seniors and others struggling to meet their needs in communities throughout Oregon. We are a membership-based organization that supports and promotes affordable housing and community development.

Throughout Oregon, our members help build sustainable communities, develop affordable housing for working families, people with disabilities, seniors and others, and provide economic opportunities for Oregonians who are struggling to meet their basic needs. Our members are housing developers and owners, home ownership educators, stewards of public investment, job creators, service providers, and community leaders.

Our mission is to support and strengthen our members through advocacy, communications, peer learning, and best practice development.  Our vision is that all Oregonians have the opportunity to succeed in life.  Opportunity begins in sustainable communities where a variety of people have a place to call home and an income sufficient to meet their basic needs.

Oregon ON formed as the result of the July 2008 merger of the statewide focused Association of Oregon Community Development Organizations (AOCDO), and the Portland-based Community Development Network (CDN).  We have 42 nonprofit Voting Members serving communities from Lincoln City to Baker City, Ashland to Portland.  We also have over 60 Organizational Affiliates; industry partners including government agencies, banks and lending institutions, construction companies, law firms, architecture firms, social service organizations and other industry allies, and many individual supporters.

Oregon ON supports our members in their mission through the following activities:

• providing opportunities for training, technical assistance, and peer support;
• serving as a communication hub to connect our members and partners with news, best practices and industry trends;
• promoting and advocating for the industry at the local, state, and federal levels; and
• developing new opportunities for partnership.
