PCL is overseen by a 5-member Allocation Committee that meets publicly in Portland City Council Chambers. The Allocation Committee makes funding recommendations in a competitive application process subject to Portland City Council approval. The Committee also reviews performance of funded programs, and advises PCL staff on policy decisions related to funding and monitoring grants. Committee members include elected representatives from City Council and Multnomah County Board of Commissioners, citizen members with knowledge and experience on children’s issues, and a representative of the business community. PCL’s goals are to prepare children for school, support children’s success inside and outside of school and to eliminate racial and ethnic disparities in children’s well-being and school success.
