PORTLAND'S VISION FOR 2030:
Shaped by the Willamette and Columbia rivers, Portland connects people and nature to create an international model of equity and sustainability.
We are a city of communities. Our distinct neighborhoods and vibrant downtown are safe, energizing civic and cultural spaces.
Our diverse population, innovative businesses and forward-thinking leaders work together to ensure livability for all.
WHO WE ARE:
The Vision into Action
(VIA) Coalition is a broad, community-led alliance of organizations,
businesses, neighborhoods, government and individuals acting collectively
and collaboratively to ensure implementation of Portland’s community vision.

to help advance the community’s vision articulated through visionPDX,
the largest city-wide visioning process in Portland and the nation.
