This presentation offered an opportunity to share why regional coordination, shared accountability, and sustained collaboration are essential to making real progress on housing stability, homelessness, and behavioral health in Lane County.

Rather than spotlighting any single organization or solution, the conversation centered on how alignment across sectors can strengthen outcomes, reduce duplication, and ensure public investments are used more effectively.

Building alignment to move the needle on housing stability and homelessness in Lane County.

Key Themes from the Conversation

During the City Club forum, A.C.T. Now Lane highlighted several core principles guiding the coalition’s work:

• A unified regional approach is critical to addressing complex, interconnected challenges.
• Housing stability, homelessness response, and behavioral health systems must be aligned to achieve lasting impact.
• Data-informed decision-making, paired with lived experience, leads to stronger outcomes.
• Collaboration across government, service providers, business, and community partners is essential for scalable solutions.
• Long-term progress requires coordination, trust, and sustained leadership, not short-term fixes.

These themes continue to shape A.C.T. Now Lane’s strategy, partnerships, and advocacy efforts.
