The Impact Reduction Program's online dashboard provides information about reported unsanctioned campsites and the status of the Impact Reduction Program's response. The dashboard is directly populated from online reports submitted by community members, and from assessments, postings and removals performed by contract employees. Photos of posted notices and before and after photos are also available.
Dashboard users can choose to view campsite information from the past 10 days, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months, or the past year by selecting the appropriate tab in the upper righthand corner of the page.
Additional options for customized views include locations of campsites that have been reported, individual site assessment scores and neighborhood boundaries. To view this information, select the corresponding layer in the top right corner of the map.
Several other performance measures are also visible on the lefthand side and below the interactive map, including graphs showing the number of assessments by month, clean and removal sites by month, and amount of waste material collected.
The Impact Reduction Program regularly publishes information about its work in online weekly reports.
Historical Performance Measures
In addition to the dashboard, the figures below help measure and track the Impact Reduction Program's performance. Prior to the Impact Reduction Program's establishment, the Citywide Coordinated Campsite Cleanup Program was developed in FY 2014-15, establishing a centralized coordinating entity to carry out campsite cleanup and removal in compliance with the Anderson et. al. v. City of Portland settlement agreement.[1] The Impact Reduction Program replaced the Coordinated Campsite Cleanup Program as the group responsible for reducing the impact of unsheltered homelessness, associated trash, and bio-waste within the City of Portland while also integrating operations with the Joint Office of Homeless Services (now Homeless Services Department). In FY 2017-18, the Impact Reduction Program increased its total staff from one full-time employee (FTE) to three FTEs, and the program’s budget substantially increased. The program added another two FTEs in FY 2021-22, and an additional FTE in FY 23-24, bringing the current total number Impact Reduction Program staff to five.
