Show Notes

Multnomah Countys homeless families face uncertainty as the county struggles to find new shelter after cutting ties with the operator of Rockwood Tower. The countys plan to shift families to a nearby Days Inn and Suites has been delayed, leaving families in crisis and the county scrambling to find new spots. The nonprofit East County Housing, which received a state grant to operate Rockwood Tower, has filed for bankruptcy, and the property is now up for sale. Any buyer will have to keep it as housing or repay the full grant amount to taxpayers.
