SUMMARY:Business & Leaders Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Topic: How does Rockwood's economic status as an area of persistent poverty\, impact the economy of East County? \n\nJoin Brad and Lynn Ketch from the Rockwood Community Development Center as they discuss how investing in Rockwood can change our regional economy.\nLife in Rockwood\n\nThe income disparities are stark. Median household income in Rockwood is less than half of what it is in Portland. In just the past eight years\, this gap has more than doubled. Home to over 40\,000 people\, Rockwood is part of East Multnomah County which is known for a considerable gap between the rich and poor.\n\nIn fact\, if Multnomah County were divided into two states\, the west side of the county would be one of the wealthiest states in the United States\, and the east side would be one of the poorest.  - source: Rockwood CDC\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease register in advance to attend and reserve your seat. Lunch is $22 for members\, $30 for non-members\, or beverage only is $5 for members and $8 for non-members.
