Welcome to CEN-OREGON

At CEN-OREGON, we are transforming education to create a brighter, more equitable future for children, families, and communities across Oregon. As a nonprofit organization, we are dedicated to bridging educational gaps, empowering educators, and fostering inclusive, culturally responsive learning environments.

Our mission is simple yet powerful: to rethink, reimagine, and redesign education through innovative programs, community partnerships, and equitable opportunities. From early learning initiatives to mental health support, from STEAM education to leadership development, we are committed to making a lasting impact.

Early Learning Education

Early learning education is the foundation for a child’s holistic development during their critical early years, from infancy to preschool.

Family Involvement in Children education

Stand for Children commits itself to helping students receive a quality education regardless of socioeconomic status, race, or geographic location. The organization engages parents to actively support their children’s education.

Next Generation of STEAM Educators

At schools, teachers are change makers. So, what happens to student learning when only one in six teachers in a district has proper training? Adequate funding can help teachers develop the skills needed to make a difference.

Our partners 

Together, we can build a world where every child thrives, every family feels supported, and every community grows stronger.
