About Safe Structures

All Portland Public School students deserve a school that will stand strong in an earthquake.


Safe Structures PPS is here to ensure that all Portland Public Schools students and educators are safe in the case of a significant seismic event, and are prepared with risk-informed plans, processes, supplies and structures.

Our Mission

The mission of Safe Structures PPS is to demand that Portland Public Schools leaders undertake an urgent, transparent, community-engaged, and risk-informed process for addressing seismic risk at our schools.
