Oregon Humane Society’s The New Road Ahead project has been honored with a 2023 Landmark Award from the Portland Business Journal as one of the most transformative projects in the region. HERA laboratory planners’ forensic brand Crime Lab Design provided programming and conceptual design.
The project expands the Humane Society’s Portland campus and bolsters the organization’s national leadership ability in animal welfare. The Animal Forensics Center is just the second program of its kind in the nation. It supports investigations for criminal cases and creases a secure facility to protect chain-of-custody evidence gathering that may be used in the prosecution of animal abuse.
