Urban Outreach begins tonight!

Urban Outreach is launching tonight (Thursday)! It is similar to last year in that we provide students with an opportunity to engage in outreach to the larger urban centers in our area (i.e., Salem and Portland).

For this school year, through collaboration with Bridgetown Night Strike (Portland), Salem Leadership Foundation (Salem) and Dave’s Table (Portland), we are committed to allow students to serve and learn from the oppressed and marginalized. We hope students establish lasting relationships and encourage lasting change.

Brief overview
