Details:

For Cascadia’s housing waitlists, we use an online application process through RentCafe. This allows us to open our waitlists more frequently and maintain shorter waitlists. This also ensures the application process is fair and equitable, that the applications we receive are accurate and complete, and that the process is in compliance with all government entities.

You can also fill out a paper application at our office. Visit the Cascadia Administration Building, Lloyd Corporate Plaza, 847 NE 19th Ave, Portland, OR 97232.

The waitlist will open on Thursday, April 3, 2025 at 10:00 A.M. PST. It will remain open until further notice.

We recommend reading these instructions to familiarize yourself with the system before the waitlist opens. This system requires that you create an account (email address and password) and that you accept the terms and conditions for RentCafe during the process.

Please note:

• Applicants will need to have a unique email address in order to register and apply.  Using one email address for several applicants (ex: if case management were assisting multiple clients) will not work!
• We will need to contact applicants, so a phone number and mailing address are also required.
• For all household members 18 and older, we require: full name, date of birth, and social security number.
• We will need an annual household income.
• If you are working with a case manager or advocate, please provide their contact information.
