Portland Street Medicine
We offer our homeless neighbors accessible whole-person care to improve and support health, and to bridge a gap in trust between people and systems.
Portland Street Medicine brings healthcare directly to people experiencing homelessness, meeting patients where they are instead of expecting them to navigate a healthcare system that often feels out of reach. With a staff of just eight and a network of 134 dedicated volunteers, we provide medical care, mental health support, harm reduction services, and connections to housing and community resources throughout Portland. Most of our clinical care is delivered by volunteer healthcare professionals who generously give their time and expertise to serve our neighbors living outside. We believe everyone deserves compassionate, high-quality healthcare, regardless of their housing status. By building trust, showing up consistently, and treating every person with dignity, we help people access care that can improve and save lives. Your support powers a community-driven model of care that reaches people who might otherwise go without healthcare altogether. Together, we are proving that when a community shows up for its most vulnerable neighbors, real change is possible.
