Our Leadership
A message from Jim Moorefield, Board of Directors Chair  
Oregon ON was formed in July 2008 as the result of the merger of Oregon’s twocommunity development associations, the Association of Oregon CommunityDevelopment Organizations and the Community Development Network. The mergerhappened because it was clear then - and is even clearer now - that communitydevelopment organizations in Oregon must support one another, and speak with one voice, if we are to be effective in securing the future of our industry and helpingthose people and communities we exist to serve.Oregon ON is almost four years old, but we’ve accomplished more than I could have hoped forwhen we got started. I’m especially proud and grateful for all the ways that Oregon ON providesopportunities for us to work together as an industry. Our attention to best practices, peer supportand training, leadership development, and our advocacy in City Hall and in Salem – these are allthings that have signicantly expanded our effectiveness as a network of community developmentorganizations. Thank you to everyone – member organizations, donors and funders - who are workingto make Oregon ON a success!
A message from John Miller, Executive Director 
Many of us have heard of the curse, “May you live in interesting times.” Certainlythese past few years have been anything but uneventful, but I would not go as far asto say that we have been cursed. At Oregon ON, the recession has surely causedsome self-reection amongst our members, and it has created several opportunitiesfor us to take a hard look at what we do and why we do it. At Oregon ON we recognized that we are all in this together, so we expanded our voting membership to include housing authorities and community action agencies.We now represent a more unied voice for issues in Oregon, and that has led to discussions that aremore fruitful with our public partners.Financially, Oregon ON is relatively stable thanks to increased membership numbers, successfulannual events and contracts for services with both the City of Portland and the State. We are glad toadd value to the efforts of our members and we continue to seek new opportunities to help.We have launched an Industry Sustainability Initiative with a goal of helping projects, organizationsand the statewide housing industry become more self-supporting into the future. Look for adescription of our initiative in this report.These interesting times have motivated us in many ways, and Oregon ON is gearing up for moreinteresting times ahead. I look forward to working closely with all of our partners as we strive to makethings just a little more predictable, and maybe even a little less “interesting,” in the years ahead.
