New Our Just Future Shelter Opens

A new Our Just Future family shelter opened in SE Portland. Our Just Future opened its new houseless shelter for families just 10 weeks after the organization announced the purchase of the former strip club on the border of Portland and Gresham. Holst contributed the design services pro bono as part of our pledge to the 1+ Project. Gresham-based Our Just Future desperately needed a new place that could be open year-round, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with more space for families and individuals.

We are thankful and thrilled to be delivering the shelter, but I wish we didn’t need one, I wish we were closing one.
— Andy Miller, Executive Director, Our Just Future
