During a citywide or regional emergency such as a severe winter storm, flood, or major earthquake, volunteer neighborhood rescuers will likely be first on-the-scene when firefighters and police are slowed by impassable streets or overwhelmed by calls for help. |
Overview
The King NET team restarted in the spring of 2025 and is excited to be back up and running and supporting our neighbors here in Northeast Portland! The King team currently meets quarterly in March, June, September and December. Meetings are hosted by various team members and alternate between in-person and hybrid meetings. You don't need to be a NET volunteer to attend our meetings! If you're interested in attending a meeting, or you'd like to like to chat with a King NET member, please reach out to the Team Lead via our email (kingnetpdx@gmail.com) to get information.
