Clackamas Village

Clackamas County is building a new transitional housing community. Transitional, or temporary, housing helps people move out of homelessness by offering a safe place to live that includes the social services and other supports they need to successfully move on to permanent, independent housing. Having sufficient resources like this in the county will help eliminate homelessness here, which will benefit all of the businesses and residents and make the community more safe and secure.

The Clackamas Village builds on the success of the adjacent Veteran's Village and will look and operate similarly. The county will ensure that the Clackamas Village will be well-managed and will benefit the neighborhood. The Clackamas Village will serve adult women and men.

Like the Veterans Village, services will include onsite staff, health care, life skills training, healthy food, assistance to find housing and employment, the creation of a peer community, mental health and recovery services, counseling, financial education, and more.

What will the village look like?

• 24 pods, or tiny homes
• A central community building with offices, a kitchen, and community space
• On-site staff and services
• A commitment to be good neighbors, and a dedicated county contact for neighbors to speak with
