Clackamas County Leaders have determined to schedule a Listening Campaign next year around the time of Lent which begins February 22 and ends on Easter, April 8. The Operating Engineers Local 701 will plan their Listening Season to best suit their scheduled activities.

Listening Campaigns and the One-to-One meetings or small group discussions that they inspire:

•    Build relationships within institutions
•    Give opportunities for expressing felt pains, pressures, and problems
•    Surface new community leaders

As Clackamas leaders start to see positive results from their Domestic Violence Housing campaign (2 houses open, fundraising in the works for 1 more), the time is ripe to start the organizing cycle once again at the “Listening and Relating” stage to surface new issues and pressures.

This fall also sees the leaders furnishing the new Domestic Violence Survivor House in Washington County with many generous donations from the community.
