Oregon Climate Action Hub was created to help all Oregonians find their place in the climate movement, serving as a “one-stop-shop” for individuals to find opportunities and take part in organized action. Join Karen Wolfgang, co-founder of the Hub, as she discusses the project's development from a mere concept to a comprehensive public resource, and highlights the importance of relationships in the creative process.

This presentation, part of Oregon Humanities' So Much Together program, was recorded live on May 10, 2023.

Karen Wolfgang (she/her) was born and raised in Portland, and has moved progressively eastward within the city until landing so far out that there are only six more blocks between her house and Gresham. After earning an undergraduate degree from Princeton ('06) and a Masters from Portland State University ('08), she started and ran a small business helping people grow their own food and complete other sustainable home improvements. She then became an adoptive mom to two neurodivergent multiracial kiddos and pivoted to teaching and consulting. Today she runs a private foundation and works on climate restoration and community resilience through the Oregon Climate Action Hub, as Team Leader for Centennial's Neighborhood Emergency Team (NET), and through other emergent collaborative organizing efforts.
