Overview

Mission

See schedule owe set goals and implement initiatives in lloyd addressing connectivity, health & well-being, living infrastructure, peace, place, prosperity, and resource regeneration. In the summer of 2022, we became a certified ecodistrict/just growth community - a culmination of three years of visioning, planning, and convening hundreds of neighborhood stakeholders to craft a collective vision for lloyd. As a part of that certification, we have developed the lloyd ecodistrict 2030 roadmap, which includes 60 objectives for building a more equitable, resilient, and climate-prepared lloyd.

What it reported doing in 2024

Inclusive prosperity, civic engagement, and community capacity buildingin fy25, lloyd ecodistrict advanced a range of programs that promote economic inclusion, civic participation, and community capacity beyond its primary service areas. The lloyd lending library supported approximately 35 community-led events across portland by providing free access to equipment such as tents, tables, lighting, water infrastructure, and event supplies. This resource reduced financial barriers for residents, small businesses, nonprofit partners, and neighborhood organizers, and also supported ecodistrict-run programming throughout the year.lloyd ecodistrict also facilitated civic engagement opportunities by hosting and supporting community conversations with local leaders, including city council candidate events, town-hall style dialogues, and other outreach that helped residents understand and engage with portland's evolving government structure. These activities created accessible avenues for community members to voice concerns, meet decision-makers, and participate in local problem-solving.additional programming under this category included neighborhood events and partnerships that did not fall within the greening, community resilience, or climate action & adaptation buckets but contributed to community activation and relationship-building. In total, all other program services encompassed 12 events, engaged 557 attendees, and leveraged 20 volunteer hours during the fiscal year.
