Friends of the Children announced a headquarters milestone on October 1, 2026. Friends of the Children announced the opening of the Duncan and Cindy Campbell National Center of Excellence at 65 NE Stanton St. in Portland’s historic Albina neighborhood, a building that will serve as its national headquarters.

What changed

The announcement establishes or expands the company’s headquarters presence in Portland, OR. The building at 65 NE Stanton St. in Portland’s historic Albina neighborhood will serve as both the Friends of the Children national headquarters and the Albina campus for the organization’s founding Portland chapter. The company said the Center was made possible by more than two dozen foundations and private donors.

New headquarters: 65 NE Stanton St., Portland, OR
Announcement date: October 1, 2026

Why the company chose this location

The announcement did not say where the national headquarters was previously located or detail the selection criteria for the site. The company said the Center is named in honor of the organization’s founders, who began Friends of the Children in 1993, and is designed to be a best-in-class, worldwide destination to advance the professional youth mentoring field, with a stated priority of serving as a premier hub for training and technical assistance.

What the move signals

A headquarters opening or relocation can signal new hiring capacity, consolidation of operating teams, investment in a regional ecosystem, or a change in how a company serves customers and partners. For GTM teams, the useful next step is to watch for role openings, regional leadership appointments, vendor consolidation, and facilities-related initiatives connected to the move.
