Sarah Iannarone, the two-time Portland mayoral candidate, will become the new executive director of The Street Trust, the Portland active-transportation nonprofit previously known as the Bicycle Transportation Alliance.
"The Street Trust has always geared toward community, advocacy, and the intersection of transportation and social justice," said Thomas Ngo, board member of both The Street Trust and its advocacy arm, The Street Trust Action Fund, in a statement. "Iannarone brings the global expertise, commitment to equity, and passion for the work these times demand."
