Our Location

Our handicap-accessible shelter is located at

5335 SW 42nd
Portland, Oregon 97221

Please note that our STREET address is quite different from our MAILING address.

Limited parking is available immediately in front of the building – and don’t hesitate to double-park (as in the photo above).  It’s the only way we can fit all the visitor and workers' cars in our lot.  You can also park up the hill a ways; just don’t park across the street directly behind our parking lot because it would be very easy for someone backing out to hit a car parked on that side of the street

Need a little help finding us?

  • If you just like your directions in "plain English, please":
    On the stretch of SW Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway connecting Raleigh Hills to Hillsdale, 42nd falls between Dosch Rd and Shattuck Rd. Turn UPHILL (South) onto 42nd and drive about a block – you will see our shelter on the righthand side of the road.
  • Or use this handy Google Map. Go ahead and click on it – it's live!
