Welcome to REIN.org

REIN.org is a virtual gathering place in the Portland, Oregon–Vancouver, Washington region for information sharing and networking among the people, community groups, government agencies and nonprofit organizations that are working to protect, restore and monitor the region’s natural resources. Information collected via REIN.org enables Metro to track the region’s ecological health over time and encourages strategic coordination and collaboration across the region.

REIN.org is brought to you by Metro’s Nature in Neighborhoods initiative.
