Welcome to Hillsdale, a neighborhood of Portland, Oregon!

The Hillsdale Neighborhood Association is an active and vibrant civic organization with many opportunities for neighbors to work together to shape the community and make it a great place for everyone.

Real progress happens when neighbors take an active role. We invite you to join, volunteer, and be part of the decisions that affect our community.

The final opportunity for community input is on July 22, 2026. HNA will help you understand the process and prepare to submit written or oral testimony in a Zoom on July 16.

The submitted plans transform the Ida B. Wells campus, a long-standing community resource, into a barrier that residents must navigate around rather than a space we can share and use. Should we expect the campuses of Robert Gray and Rieke to be eventually fenced off from public use as well?
