Founded in 1985, NeighborImpact is a private nonprofit organization established to serve and speak out for economically disadvantaged people in Central Oregon. Our mission is to break the cycle of poverty by helping remove the barriers that prevent people from achieving economic self-sufficiency.

NeighborImpact is not a government agency, but a private nonprofit agency whose funding comes from federal, state and local sources, grants from private foundations and donations from individuals and businesses.

Our work is founded on confidence that the community, including local governments, the private sector and low-income persons, can work together to forge solutions to both the immediate impacts of poverty and its long-term causes.
