Our organization was formed in response the needs that timber towns encountered as they lost their economic base. If you want to learn more about these places and the people who live their, you can visit our website that gives voice to rural northwest at www.ripplenw.org. We will be reflecting on this story and how it plays in Oakridge as this progresses over the next week.
