  • Right 2 Dream Too (known to locals as R2D2 or R2DTOO) is a self-managed houseless encampment in Portland, Oregon incorporated as a nonprofit organization. In its beginning, it has set up an unauthorized houseless camp on private property in October, 2011 in Old Town Chinatown at Northwest 4th Avenue and West Burnside Street near downtown, Portland. It had permission from the property owner, but it was not authorized by the city. The encampment was started as a direct action of Right 2 Survive, and quickly self organized into a rest area (an overnight shelter run by other unhoused Portlanders). Right 2 Survive has not been active with Right 2 Dream Too since 2017. Its operation erected tents and built a fence without necessary permits and it was assessed fines for doing so (but did adjust the fence to come into compliance before leaving Old Town). In April 2017, the city agreed to allow its organized "Rest Area" to move to a land owned by the Portland Bureau of Transportation and stay for up to two years. Its camp remained at the original location for over five years before moving to a temporary site in North Portland on N Thunderbird Way in July 2017. It was reported in August 2020 that the lease at this site has been extended until April 2021, and extended 2 more times, currently through April 2023. It has now been providing a safe place for unhoused Portlanders for over 10 years. (en)
