African Youth and Community Organization excited for new 'Dream Center'
February 14 2021
The nonprofit organization secures a two-year lease with Metro for a new location in Northeast Portland.
A Portland nonprofit is seeing a lot of new developments this year after moving into a bigger place more central to the African immigrant community they serve.
African Youth and Community Organization (AYCO) recently moved to a new location on Northeast 74th Avenue and Glisan Street — the former site of the Trinity Broadcasting Network — thanks to a partnership with land owner Metro, the elected regional government.
"This new center is the Dream Center for AYCO," said Jamal Dar, the organization's executive director.
