Our Programs
Good Deeds Program- The Good Deeds Program researches the databases of Central Oregon to find racially biased covenants and offer homeowners the tools to have them removed from their deeds. Ultimately, the goals for the program are to educate the public, and to remove all biased covenants, or offer a solution for those who chose to remove these painful memories of our history. There are 3 major steps to reach our goals for the program.
1. Searching the records and locating racially biased covenants to create the database
2. Contacting homeowners and offering the tools to remove biased covenants
3. Creating a website that offers a map of areas of Central Oregon that biased covenants were found. You can access the Good Deeds Open Link Here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IXZmls7uJvJWaGkUTRXz8wqKGELXb2Jm?usp=sharing

W.E.G.U.D. App- The W.E.G.U.D. App is an application we are developing that will provide the Central Oregon community with a free, downloadable application that provides statistical data of racially biased crimes and incidents in Central Oregon. This application can be used by average citizens as well as law enforcement, school districts, visitors and more. This application provides the very important information that can save lives and reduce racially bias incidents at the touch of a button.
