What is We Are Home?

The We Are Home Film Festival is Thrive Central Oregon's annual story-sharing event. Each year we seek short films centered on a theme that reflects issues we see in our work. We truly believe that stories are essential in bringing our community together and fostering a sense of belonging.

The name We Are Home reflects the right we all have to calling the place we reside "home". No matter our age, race, ethnicity, income, place or type of lodging - we are ALL Central Oregonians and we have a right to be here.
