Who runs Gale's Lodge?

This project is a partnership between Polk County and the Dallas United Methodist Church (DUMC). DUMC has been a leader in social service partnerships for many years. Currently DUMC serves as a meal site for James 2 Kitchen and a produce distribution site, offers a variety of support groups, and plays a key role in many other community events with support and resources. DUMC will provide the program with peer mentors for veterans and offers a space to be used as a day center equipped with computers to help veterans locate permanent housing and stable employment. 

For questions or to start the housing application process, contact the Polk County Veteran Service Office at (503) 751-1644 or by email at vso@co.polk.or.us
