Our Just Future

Troutdale's Public Safety & Equity Advisory Committee (PSEAC for short) wants to help our community stay ready. Emergencies can happen when we least expect them — and when they do, first responders may not always be able to reach everyone right away. That's why the most important step any of us can take is being prepared to care for ourselves and those around us. The more of us who are ready, the faster our community recovers together.

For more information on how to stay safe, before, during, and after emergencies, visit the city's Emergency Preparedness page, where you can also sign up for county alert notifications by text, email, and phone calls.

The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) is forecasting temperatures in the 90s this Saturday, in the upper 90s on Sunday, and getting close to 100 on Monday. A key part of preparing communities for heat is getting the word out. Please help by sharing the following information and resources!

Cool spaces like libraries and malls will be open during normal hours this weekend. If someone in Portland needs help finding a cool space this weekend, they can dial 311 between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. People can also find cooling spaces in Multnomah County on the interactive cooling space map at multco.us/hot.

🍲 Share a Meal, Share the Love! * Volunteer Opportunity*
Every month we host a potluck for our shelter participants, and we’d love your help to make it extra delicious. We’re looking for volunteers to bring home-cooked or store-bought dishes — anything from hearty mains to sweet treats. Every bite you share is a reminder that our community cares. ❤️
