Cully Family Housing Readies to Break Ground

Las Adelitas is preparing to break ground early next year after receiving final funding approval from Portland City Council this month. Located in the Cully neighborhood, Las Adelitas is truly a family-focused development—with 70 percent of the units large enough for families with children. Families at Las Adelitas will not only have an affordable home, but a true network of community support including mental health support from Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare; culturally specific programming by Familias en Accion for prevention and management of chronic health conditions; and Hacienda CDC, who are providing a broad array of resident services to all tenants, including financial education, child development, health services, job networking, physical fitness, cooking classes, and a food pantry. Construction is expected to begin in February 2021.
