What Do The Numbers Show?
The total financial support combines $27.1 million in Portland Children's Levy (PCL) annual grant funding and $5.7 million in Office of Arts and Culture (Arts) annual grants awarded to partner organizations and artists, and $7.8 million through Office of Arts & Culture partnerships with school districts. This is a combined metric for the new City structure when PCL and Arts moved to the Community & Economic Development Service Area at the beginning of FY 2025-26. There is only one year of historical data for this measure due to rollout of the new City structure in FY 2024-25.
How Did We Arrive at These Numbers?
This metric includes all payments and grants made to partners, including community organizations, individual artists, and school districts, which is tracked in the City's system for financial, human resources, and procurement processes, called SAP.
