Their legacy is one of potential untapped, as they face significant exclusion from economic and civic life, and an environment that is full of challenges without sufficient supports to help them navigate forwards into the fabric of 2016 Portland. This report, prepared in partnership with the New Portlander’s Policy Council, surfaces the history of newcomer conditions in the region, including a policy Ann Curry-Stevens history, alongside a literature review on best practices for newcomer integration, new and Anne Sinkey, Editors Center to Advance Racial Equity, quantitative data on the patterns of newcomer experiences, a chapter on myths and Portland State University myth-busting, and insights into five newcomer communities: Indigenous Latinos, Tongan, Iraqi, Iranian and Somali.

In 2012, the nonprofit’s $154 million investment in energy efficiency and small-scale renewable energy generation delivered record-breaking results. Natural gas savings increased 22 percent and electric savings increased 12 percent over 2011. Renewable generation was 3.4 times higher than in 2011. “Year after year, we’ve connected with people to help them improve their homes, build resilient businesses and create a better energy future,” said Margie Harris, executive director, Energy Trust. “After unprecedented progress in 2012, the change we’ve been working toward is here. Today people are using energy differently and more efficiently throughout the state and harnessing clean, renewable power from Oregon’s natural sources.” In 2012, customers of Portland General Electric, Pacific Power, NW Natural and Cascade Natural Gas made energy improvements ranging from comprehensive home weatherization and solar electric systems to high-efficiency commercial lighting and renewable energy generation from dairy biogas. Through these actions, participating customers will save $408 million on their energy bills over time. “When people spend less on energy bills, the savings ripple through the economy,” Harris said.
