We lead the community in volunteer activities that assist seniors, people with disabilities, and residents lacking resources and in need of social services. Staff and volunteers work together to foster opportunities for residents to access services so they can live healthier, more socially connected lives and continue to live independently. Our volunteers are critical in delivering and providing supplementary services to Clackamas County residents.
