Based on the success of the northeast Portland program and more than 1,800 youth signing up, Mayor Hales has announced that free summer activ- ities are now available for youth who register for scheduled activi- ties at the East Portland Communi- ty Center, 740 S.E. 106th Ave. “This program is about more than sports, or kids being bored during the summer; it’s about fur- thering the city’s and parks shared mission of equity and providing access to recreation,” said Port- land Parks Commissioner Amanda Fritz. “I thank the mayor for his continued efforts towards enhanc- ing young lives and reducing vio- lence, and Portland Parks and Rec- reation staff for their dedication in expanding this valuable program.” The initiative will be rolled out at other community centers throughout the summer as part of a $2 million investment in the city’s current budget. It came about in response to a spate of gun vio- lence and youth violence incidents throughout the city. “We have to get upstream in the lives of our kids,” Hales said. “That means letting them pick up a soccer ball or a paint brush, a pen or a guitar, a job skill or a résumé. The more of these safe, positive activities we can provide for them, the better.”
