Cultivating the Power of Partnerships in the Illinois Valley
The Illinois Valley Community Development Organization, or as we like to call it, IVCanDO, has been in step with the Illinois Valley in Southern Oregon since 1995. The work we do is guided by the needs of our community – our neighbors, friends, and families.
