Portland Secures New Sites for Multi-Million Dollar Homeless and Asylum Seeker Shelters
Portland community leaders are set to discuss plans for a new multi-million dollar homeless shelter on Riverside Street, following the closure of the Oxford Street Shelter. The new shelter will provide 200 beds and will be located in a former nursing home. Community leaders have expressed their support for the new location, which they hope will provide a more stable and permanent solution for the city's homeless population.
