About us
We have served seniors of Clackamas County for 50 years and counting!
Our services provide critical support to at-risk seniors and adults with disabilities who are in danger of abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
Our clients come to us initially isolated with no one else to care for them and are often referred to our organization by social services agencies, police departments, and the court system. Our highly skilled and professional staff protect their finances, oversee bill paying needs, and when necessary, find them a safe, clean place to live. Our staff then continue to regularly check on each client for as long as they are needed.
We are overseen by an excellent board of trustees who are committed to excellence of service to the Clackamas County community. Through the generosity of our donors, we have been able to improve the quality of life for seniors and adults with disabilities in Clackamas County, Oregon for more than 50 years.
Our services include guardianship, conservatorship, and diversion. We offer early and low cost interventions which delay costly interventions such as adjudication. Our processes also preserve our client’s dignity, promote independence to every extent possible, and enhance the quality of their lives.
