Trillium Artisans is an innovative, green, nonprofit community economic development program that empowers artisans and actively connects them to markets.
Trillium was founded on John McKnight's principles of asset-based community development, which finds a way out of the tangled web of poverty by focusing on talents and capacities, rather than what is lacking. In 1994, we conducted an asset inventory of extremely low-income neighborhoods in Portland, Oregon, and found talented residents wanting to sell their handmade goods and build their own businesses.
Note: Trillium Artisans' 501(c)(3) registered name is Neighborhood Pride Team dba Trillium Artisans. We were originally started as a project of the larger nonprofit Neighborhood Pride Team, now defunct.
