OREGON OFFICE OF OUTDOOR RECREATION
Oregon’s Office of Outdoor Recreation was created through legislation in 2017. The office is charged with coordinating the state’s outdoor recreation policy across agencies, between public and private sectors, and in cooperation with organizations that have a vested interest in seeing Oregon’s outdoor recreation reach its fullest potential in every corner of the state. The office will also supplement and amplify agencies already doing this work. Cailin O’Brien-Feeney has served as Oregon’s Director of Outdoor Recreation since 2018.
