More Details

What is The Umatilla and Morrow Counties Community Resource Network?
The Umatilla and Morrow Counties Community Resource Network (UMCRN) is a community engagement platform that focuses on firming up safety nets and expanding opportunities.
The UMCRN aligns services, connects resources to fill unmet needs for community members, and accelerates impact by utilizing private sector innovation, leveraging public sector resources and mobilizing social service networks.

How does it work?
The UMCRN is comprised of public bodies, non-profits, for-profit businesses, tribes, and individuals. When a member becomes aware of a need it is posted on the UMCRN. No personally identifiable information about the client is listed, just the basics about the need. The UMCRN uses custom matching to only notify those members whose profiles match the need. UMCRN Members contact the requester directly to coordinate details. The UMCRN platform connects resources to needs in the local community.

UMCRN Members Can
Create a custom profile and select service/need categories and locations of interest to them.
  • Share resources or goods.
  • View and fulfill requests from other UMCRN members.
  • Seek resources for unmet needs.
  • Gather quarterly to celebrate UMCRN successes and view real-time community data.
  • Provide input to add new functionality and improve the UMCRN.

The UMCRN is a free online tool for organizations to share resources and/or unmet needs. You might use the UMCRN to:
  • Share resources or goods. For example, you could share surplus school supplies with those in need. UMCRN members can arrange pick up or delivery directly.
  • Seek resources for unmet needs. For example, you are working with a family and encounter a service gap. You could use the UMCRN to try and fill their unmet need.
  • Share service-oriented information. For example, you are conducting a health fair. You could use the UMCRN to promote this event to those members interested in this area.
