North by Northeast Community Health Center

North by Northeast Community Health Center North by Northeast Community Health Center is an organization that was created in response to Hurricane Katrina.

A pastor and a Jewish doctor began a clinic that was rooted in partnership based in faith, friendship, and a passion for community service. African American residents of Multnomah County suffer from health disparities which place them and their families at risk. When high blood pressure and diabetes are left untreated, complications such as heart disease and stroke can devastate families and cause a downward economic spiral. We believe these health inequities can - and must - be eliminated. North by Northeast is a safe and welcoming place, one where people find medical care that meets their needs in a culturally respectful way.

Our growth since 2006, the year Pastor Mary and Dr. Jill founded North by Northeast, has been responsive to the community and intentionally gradual to ensure longevity. Several years ago we began looking ahead to celebrating our 20th year in 2026…and wondering what the next 20 years of North by Northeast could look like. We enlisted the expertise of one of our Board members, Sirius Bonner, to lead our Board, staff, patients and community in a year-long Strategic Planning process.

We’re thrilled to announce that on February 13, 2026, our Board adopted our new 2026–2030 Strategic Plan, and we’re even more thrilled to share it with our community, so you know what is driving us over the next five years. To read our full Strategic Plan, please visit our website: nxneclinic.org!

Our Story

We are the only medical clinic in Oregon devoted to African American health. Why is this so important to us? African American residents of Multnomah County suffer from health disparities which place them and their families at risk. When high blood pressure and diabetes are left untreated, complications such as heart disease and stroke can devastate families and cause a downward economic spiral. We believe these health inequities can - and must - be eliminated. North by Northeast is a safe and welcoming place, one where people find medical care that meets their needs in a culturally respectful way.
