Community-Based Organizations

A Community-Based Organization (CBO) is typically a non-profit entity that operates within a specific community or geographical area, aiming to address local needs and improve the well-being of its residents. CBOs typically focus on issues impacting the community such as healthcare, education, social services, housing, and community development. Examples of these community organizations include local food banks, youth mentoring programs, neighborhood associations, churches and immigrant support centers. In Beaverton, some local CBO's include the Beaverton Resource Center and Westside Transportation Alliance.
