EXTRA EXTRA! Street Roots is going weekly! From Portland Tribune: Many vendors gain self-respect after struggling with mental health issues or addictions. For a small investment, vendors can get a foothold in business, make contacts, and move into housing or get better jobs, Bayer said. They find a home and community gathering in the newspaper office at 211 N.W. Davis St. “I make friends, and that’s golden,” said Marlon Crump, 36, the Street Roots vendor of the year. He said he has no greater ambition than selling the papers from his regular spot at the Standard building, 900 S.W. Fifth Ave.
