Housing Solutions for Oregon's Rural Communities, a Panel Discussion
November 6
6:30–8:00 p.m.

Join us in-person or via livestream for a panel focused on Housing Solutions for Oregon's Rural Communities. This event is part of the Wayne Morse Center’s 2025-27 theme of inquiry Common Ground: Cities, Towns, and Counties Confronting Shared Challenges and is co-sponsored by UO's School of Planning, Public Policy and Management (PPPM).

Speakers include: Ben Clark - Professor; Director, UO School of Planning, Public Policy and Management Eric Mongan - Housing Production Manager for Lane County Rebecca Lewis - Associate Professor; Director, UO's Institute for Policy Research and Engagement Steve Adams - Policy Director for Lane County

In this discussion, panelists will share options for addressing Oregon's rural housing challenges, including ideas gleaned at the Oct. 29-30 Rural Housing Policy Incubator, a summit where policymakers, industry leaders, and experts will roll up their sleeves and develop a focused set of policy and funding recommendations for the 2026 Oregon Legislative Session. 

The summit, organized by Inspire Oregon, is a collaborative effort between PPPM and the government of Lane County, Oregon. It aims to create a platform to gather leaders and doers from across Oregon to collaborate, innovate, and drive change. 

Free and open to the public. No registration required.
