Request Assistance from a City Street Outreach Worker

Service
Complete this form to request that a City Street Outreach Worker contact you or someone you know who is currently homeless or unsheltered about support services. Due to resource limitations, completing the form does not guarantee placement in a shelter site or place you on a waitlist for shelter.

This form will take 2-3 minutes to complete.

The purpose of this form is to connect currently unsheltered/homeless community members who are interested in assistance with a City Street Outreach Worker. After receiving the form, City Outreach workers will attempt to reach out within 30 days to establish a connection and offer support in navigating appropriate next steps. Filling out this form does not place a person on a waiting list for shelter.

If you are concerned that someone who is homeless needs an immediate welfare check, please contact 9-1-1 for Portland Street Response.

Do not use this form to report a campsite location for assessment. City Street Outreach Workers do not assess, clean, or take part in removing reported campsites. The City Street Outreach Team is a program of the City's Street Services Coordination Center.

If you are experiencing homelessness, the City also has information about resources, hygiene access, and job opportunities.
