Honor, Remember: Clackamas County's Annual Homeless Persons' Memorial Vigil Approaches

Clackamas County and Homeless Solutions of Clackamas County are inviting all neighbors to a poignant evening of reflection and remembrance at the annual Longest Night Homeless Persons’ Memorial candlelight vigil.

The powerful gathering is set for December 21st in Oregon City, intentionally held on the first day of winter—the longest night of the year—to honor the memory of those in our homeless community who tragically lost their lives over the past year. Last year's ceremony honored 36 Clackamas County residents who passed away.

The vigil will include a solemn reading of names, a candle ceremony, important words for reflection, and a time for community remembrance.

Community Support Encouraged: Those who attend are encouraged to bring a donation of new warm socks, hats, gloves, or a new or gently used warm winter coat to help those in need.

Please help spread the word through your networks and social channels.
