n a December letter to friends and sup
porters, Multnomah County Chair Bev
Stein announced she is planning to run for
governor in 2002.
She thinks government has a critical
role to play in meeting the state’s chal
lenges. The next governor will need to
transform government to facilitate the
strengths of Oregon’s citizens, she says.
“I believe I have the skills, the experience
and the vision to be that kind of governor,”
Stein wrote in the letter. The former legisla
tor, who has a strong record on sexual minor
ity and human rights issues, has been the
county’s chair for seven years.
Stein’s letter asked for contributions
to her pending campaign, but supporters
had to act quickly. Because of a newly Bev Stein

Love Makes a Family will expand its month
ly meetings to a new westside location Jan. 23.
The support group will meet 6:30 p.m. on
the fourth Tuesday of each month at the
Community Church of Cedar Hills,
11695 S.W. Park Way near Cedar Hills
Boulevard in Portland. The eastside meetings
will continue as usual.
Organizers say the west side’s schools are
more reserved about alternative families than
those on the east side, so some of the parents
decided to meet together to discuss their own
issues. The new meeting is starting to reach out
to more families on the west side of the metro
politan area including Beaverton, Hillsboro and
West Portland.
A few families already have shown an inter
est in participating, and organizers think more
will come in time. The group welcomes parents
and children at the meetings, where parents
discuss pertinent topics and children meet
