Coming to the end of 2020, LCA are reflecting on 20 years of service supporting the Latinx and immigrant community in Central Oregon.

To the contrary, we ought to persist in upholding the rights and worth of all, including our immigrant friends and family.
Join LCA on December 3rd from 12-1 pm to hear stories of triumph from Latinx community members while enjoying a delicious “to-go” lunch and connecting with great guests. This is a digital celebration of LCA’s 20 years of service AND a chance to contribute to their mission!

2021 virtual Rural Caucus and Strategy Session
2021-05-15 | Deschutes Brewery Public House, 1044 NW Bond St, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
Every year rural and small town organizers come together for the Rural Caucus & Strategy Session, a day to share incredible organizing from across the state, reflect on the previous year and make plans for our rural human dignity movement in the year ahead. And what a year it’s been… full of grief and challenges and courage and creativity!
The Caucus will look a bit different this year. ROP will begin at 9 am PST with a morning session focused on reflecting on the work rural Oregonians have done for human dignity and democracy over the last year and planning for the year of community organizing to come! Join for one or both of the afternoon strategy sessions focusing on building our rural organizing toolboxes.

Professional Development for K–12 educators.
2025-01-28 16:00 - 18:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | 375 SW Powerhouse Dr Suite 100, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
Professional Development
This virtual workshop is for K–12 educators across multiple content areas. Confluence Professional Development’s purpose is to educate teachers in the pedagogy of Indigenous curriculum and lessons. It is to prepare adults, teachers, and educators with a more perceptive understanding of Native American lifeways, history, cultural traditions, and ecology that define our Native identity.
Over the two-day virtual workshop, the cohort will learn directly from Indigenous workshop facilitators/speakers and have the opportunity to think through Indigenous education concepts together using materials from Confluence Media Library, our publications, Columbia River Sites, and our work from Camp Confluence and Confluence in the Classroom. We will also show the parallels of our work at Confluence with Oregon’s Tribal History/Shared History and Washington’s Since Time Immemorial curriculums.
This cohort will meet on Zoom on Jan. 21 and Jan. 28 at 4–6pm. Our theme this month is:
Voices of the River Volume 1: Stories to Be Told – Ancestors Always Present
