Our Mission

Our mission is to support and empower communities to secure local self determination and self-governance rights, superior to corporate power, in order to protect our quality of life, the natural environment, public health, and safety.

Who We Are

On September 12, 2013, community members from eight Oregon counties gathered in Corvallis, Oregon, to draft and sign the Corvallis Declaration of Community Rights, the founding document that launched the Oregon Community Rights Network (ORCRN) in January 2014. The Declaration, as does the work of the ORCRN today, calls upon communities across the state to join together in a movement to elevate the rights of people, their communities, and nature above the claimed “rights” of corporations.
