2020 Impact Report

UWCC held its Annual Celebration, and it was indeed a celebration this year! 

Despite a worldwide pandemic, despite technological disparities among marginalized populations, despite racial, socio-economic and gender inequity, UWCC Partner Agencies improved lives in Clatsop County in 2020. 

  • 18 families received emotional education and support to guide them through grief, loss, abuse and transition. 

  • 90 children were taken from neglectful or abusive situations and placed in more stable, supportive homes with advocates who fought for their best interest. 
  • 86 survivors of domestic violence were given resources to keep themselves safe and sheltered through their transition to a secure living situation. 
  • 355 individuals were welcomed off the streets, fed and educated on how to live healthy, independent lives.
  • 450 school-aged children created communities in which they could explore, learn and play.
  • 130 adults returned to school with support that allowed them to graduate, become independent and financially secure in their jobs.
  • 2,800 rural students were given access to educational materials to foster a love of learning at home.
  • 156 struggling readers were matched with mentors who inspired learning through the love of literature.
  • 8,100 meals for struggling senior citizens.
  • 31 child survivors of sexual abuse were brought into a safe, understanding community whose mission is for them to understand their innate value as human beings. 

This is what LIVING UNITED looks like. Community coming together for the benefit of individuals, which of course, benefits us all.
