We Welcome - IPRC Positive Activism

1/15/2017

The IPRC community supports all people, of all types and origins. IPRC connected with some local business owners -Lisa Mangum and Jason Leivian - who wanted a positive message of acceptance to hang in their store front windows. The result is the 'We Welcome' broadside.

The response from the community here in Portland and beyond has been very warm and generous. We has likely shipped around 2000 of these posted in the past few months, and they are free to take from the IPRC with a suggested donation. They are seen all over Portland, and even hanging in car windows and residences. The power of the press is in full effect with this one, and seeing such support for such a positive message only encourages us to continue.

Ar these signs still available? I saw them all over Portland! I work at a private counseling practice in Little Rock, AR and would like to buy (donate)!
