Albina Partnership

Through the partnership between Lewis & Clark and Albina Vision Trust, L&C will serve as the educational and economic empowerment partner of the Trust.

As such, L&C has the opportunity to reenvision education and advance several priorities in its recently completed strategic plan. This roadmap for the future includes investments in educational experiences and opportunities for students that develop their leadership capacity and readiness to make an impact on their communities and the world. For Albina Vision Trust, the partnership represents a commitment to education and a path towards economic empowerment and hope.

“We are excited to be working with Albina Vision Trust, a truly transformational redevelopment project that is sure to become a model for other cities nationwide. Bringing the Albina and Lewis & Clark communities together has untold value for all, including offering immersive learning opportunities for our undergraduate, graduate, and law students as well as a chance to codevelop a brighter future for our city. We are looking forward to collaborating with the Albina community on the shared vision for educational and economic empowerment that uplifts all.”

—Robin H. Holmes-Sullivan, president of Lewis & Clark
