A Resource For Owners of Home-Based Businesses in Portland Oregon

The purpose of AHB is to assist home-based businesses by: providing business and technical information that is current and practical; promoting professional standards and image; providing an advocacy; providing appropriate group services; providing a forum for socializing and networking

Purpose -- Principles -- Vision. The Association is founded for the purpose of fostering communication, camaraderie, and unity among its members. Members should be fair, ethical and cooperative in all business transactions and relations with other members. The Association honors the sanctity of individual initiative and seeks to unite this indivisible power -- with a sense of humor, a sense of mission, and some hard work -- for all.
RSVP’s requested for meal planning. For information and to reserve call Eric at 503/232-2326.

You don’t need to have a home business to attend our monthly business association meeting! First-time visitors pay the members’ rate of $10 for the meal and evening.
