In 2024, PLACE Initiative continued advancing equitable climate action by supporting community-driven planning and policy innovation. We provided direct technical assistance to four rural Appalachian towns through the Appalachian Regional Commission-funded "What's Next East Kentucky?!" initiative, guiding local leaders and residents through the PLACE Assessment process to identify opportunities for climate resilience, economic revitalization, and housing security. PLACE co-hosted the Transportation, Mobility, and the Public Realm Urban Thinkers Campus as part of the Place Summit in Bentonville, Arkansas, in partnership with ULI NWA, convening over 150 professionals, advocates, and community members. Participants developed actionable strategies to shift transportation investment toward walkable, people-centered systems aligned with climate, equity, and fiscal responsibility goals. Through our Climate-Ready Corridors campaign, we collaborated with local and regional partners to promote infill development, cooperative housing models, and climate-adaptive infrastructure along key corridors in Portland, Oregon and beyond. PLACE supported policy research and public engagement around equitable urban growth, scenario planning tools, and disaster response hubs, including tactical neighborhood hub pilot designs. PLACE also contributed to national thought leadership through participation in the UN-Habitat World Urban Campaign, CNU Cascadia, and multiple webinars and publications, reaching over 5,000 individuals through digital and in-person programming in 2024. 0 22025 22025 Camille Cortes Board Chair 8 0 0 0 Matt Lambert Treasurer 8 0 0 0 Tanya Paglia Secretary 4 0 0 0 Ross Plattel Vice Chair 4 0 0 0 Padriac Steinschneider Board Member 2 0 0 0 Yangbo Du Board member 4 0 0 0 Ira Feldman Board member 2 0 0 0 Bruzenskey Bois Board member 4 0 0 0 Garlynn Woodsong Executive Director 20 61871 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 OR Matt Lambert 239 NW 13th Ave Suite 303 Portland OR 97209 3057993892 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 0 40000 43000 64338 147338 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 40000 43000 64338 147338 27053 120285 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 147338 864 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Bank Fees;8|No description;0^Total;8^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Description;EOY Amount^Outstanding expense contractor services;453^Total;453^
