Slavic Community Center of NW, Inc, a local 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization. Our fundamental goal – help members of this community become fully functional, well-integrated part of the society in every aspect of their life in this country: education, employment, health and wellness, social services, business development, career growth, legal assistance, etc. while preserving their cultural heritage.
Aims to spread information about government and public social programs that help and provide for the most vulnerable members of our community. We also aim to connect other members of our community who are in need of material or psychological help with the appropriate resources.
Provide information about various government and non-government programs that focus of small and medium sized business development with help of investments and subsidies. Assist with the search of goods and services, not only within the Slavic community, but also beyond. Organize various entrepreneurial and networking events (trade shows, seminars and business meetings) resulting in exchange of experience and establishing professional contacts.
The goal of this department is to introduce members of Slavic community to opportunities to take part in various educational programs such as English classes. In addition, we give attention to Russian and Ukrainian language and cultural education, especially important for those who were born in the USA.
In 2011 we launched this sector, which focuses on presenting factual and time sensitive information about life and events of the EE community and the region: news, interviews, television shows. The video production of the programs broadcasted online and some were broadcasted on christian American affiliated satellite and cable channels.

We are always looking for good people. Feel free to reach out to us if you would like to help support the underserved and underrepresented Slavic community.
I'm so grateful to Slavic Community Center of NW. They were there when we needed help the most. They helped me with food as well as utility payments.
I live in East Portland and a huge fan of the Slavic Festival. I go there every year to meet people, eat delicious food and watch beautiful performances. This is my favorite even and I always look forward to the next year!
My husband lost his work because of the pandemic. I really didn't know what to do! I've heard about Slavic Community Center of NW on Slavic Family radio and reached out to them. They were very passionate and helped me with food and utility payments.
