We are pleased to welcome Senator Jeff Merkley as our keynote speaker!

U.S. Senator Merkley (D-Ore), who now serves on the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, the Subcommittee on Financial Institutions, and the Subcommittee on Housing, Transportation and Community Development, has been a friend to community development for almost two decades. He served as the Executive Director of Oregon ON member Habitat for Humanity Portland/Metro East and the first Housing Director of Human Solutions. At those organizations, he led a neighborhood in shutting down Portland’s worst crack market, launched the pilot project which established the Portland YouthBuilders program in which gang-affected youth build homes in their own neighborhoods, and launched Oregon’s first Individual Development Account (IDA) program, helping low-income families save money to buy homes, send their children to college, and start businesses.
