PSR is dispatched by The Bureau of Emergency Communications (BOEC) to respond to non-life-threatening crises currently responded to by Police and Fire, such as behavioral health issues and welfare checks. Program Values: PSR strives to uplift the dignity and worth of all Portlanders, particularly those who have been historically marginalized and criminalized, by ensuring timely and professional person-centered first response. PSR is situated both in the City of Portland’s first responder system, and in the broader continuum of crisis care. To ensure the best possible outcomes for our clients, we work collaboratively with community partners, health systems, and traditional first responders. PSR operates from a framework of Trauma-Informed Care with the recognition that adverse life experiences (including health systems and carceral trauma) create barriers for clients to connect with the care and supportive services they need to thrive in the community. PSR aims to respond to the complex care needs of individuals experiencing low acuity crises in the community. This Program is Expected to: Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by Police where criminal activity is not present. Reduce the number of individuals transported to the emergency department for low acuity medical related issues that could instead be addressed in a pre-hospital care setting. Reduce the number of behavioral health and substance use/intoxication calls traditionally responded to by Police and Fire. Position Summary: The Peer Support Specialist (PSS) serves alongside an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and a Mental Health Crisis Responder, responding to low-acuity, non-life threatening 911 calls pertaining to behavioral health, substance use, and/or welfare checks. In addition to co-responding to 911 calls, the PSS will follow up with individuals as needed and provide support, recovery mentorship, advocacy, and/or education in overall health and wellness. The PSS is a specialized and distinct role on PSR multidisciplinary teams as they facilitate critical health and social service connections by sharing their lived experience receiving services and navigating complex systems in early recovery. In addition to direct client work, the PSS may also engage in outreach and community education. The PSS will report to a Community Health Supervisor.

Are you passionate about learning more about construction proposals and advising on creative approaches to meet plumbing code requirements? If so, the City of Portland could benefit from your talents and passion. Purpose of the Plumbing Code Board of Appeal The Plumbing Code Board of Appeals is a three-person advisory body that reviews appeals from plumbing contractors who disagree with decisions made by City building officials to ensure a construction plan’s conformance with the City’s Plumbing Code.

The board issues rulings on whether to uphold the decisions of City building officials or allow an initial proposal to proceed as-is or with minor changes. To Qualify To be eligible for the advisory committee, members must live, play, worship, go to school, work or do business in the City of Portland.

Desired attributes The Bureau of Development Services is at a point of significant transformation as it expands the ways it interacts with and provides services to the public, with a shift to more online and remote services becoming available. It is critically important to have people of color at the table, providing their advice, perspectives and feedback on new ways the bureau and its partner bureaus serve the community through the application of building codes. We need systems, processes and services that work for people of color. If you want to assist the review and application of buildings codes in better serving communities of color, and you have experience and training in construction and development that can inform this board’s work, then we want to see your application.
