The West Linn Alliance
Working for Equity – Celebrating Diversity – Promoting Inclusion
We are neighbors working together with local government, schools, organizations, and businesses to make West Linn a safe and welcoming community for all.
The West Linn Alliance recognizes that we continue to see hate-related incidents in West Linn.

We believe everyone who decides to live or work in our community should be able to do so without being subjected to acts of bias, prejudice, or hate.
