Dignity Village

Dignity Village, Inc. is a membership-based community and a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization in NE Portland, providing shelter off the streets for 60 people a night since 2000.  Dignity Village envisioned and created the first Village Model shelter in North America. The Village Model is democratically self-administrated, self-governed, and self-operated with a mission to provide shelter that fosters community and self-empowerment– a radical experiment to end homelessness.
