ROSEBURG, Ore., Feb. 26, 2021--NeighborWorks Umpqua has provided housing and community development services to southwest Oregon for over 30 years. NeighborWorks Umpqua’s unwavering commitment to its mission enables the empowerment of so many individuals, families and even businesses in the southern Oregon region. With NeighborWorks Umpqua’s service-driven stakeholders, funders, and in tandem with nonprofit partners and committed civic leaders, they strive to build a stronger and more resilient community.

No success is without its challenges. The NeighborWorks Umpqua board is taking the organization in a new direction with the departure of their Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations Officer. Through careful and considered action, the NeighborWorks Umpqua Board has engaged strong interim leadership to guide the staff and the organization through this transition and to continue to work throughout these challenging times.

“We are grateful to be a part of the continued health and growth of the southern Oregon community, and we deeply appreciate the continued support of our mission,” states Randall Mason, NeighborWorks Umpqua Board Chair.
