In Clackamas county, Oregon, the Senior Citizens Council of Clackamas County has a solid reputation for being the non-profit to turn to when a vulnerable senior needs support services (such as help in making out checks to pay bills and balancing a checkbook) in order to continue living independently. The Council has also been willing to serve as a court-appointed guardian or conservator in situations when a senior needs such a fiduciary but has no suitable and willing family member to take on the role. The Council is staffed with a handful of dedicated, compassionate people who work hard to match their clients with the services they need. They believe strongly in treating their clients with respect and providing assistance in a manner that preserves their dignity.

One of the mental health clients who lives in my Adult Care facility has guardianship through the Senior Citizens' Council. I have been greatly impressed with the kindness, patience, courtesy and professionalism that Christina, Louise, and Franki have shown (both to my client, and to my ACH staff)! They are available (even on weekends), and prompt in their response to requests' for information, as well as call-backs. Each month, Franki meets with my client, and she is always interested in his progress. I have spoken with Christina and Louise also, asking for advice; they have been very helpful to me! It is my sincere hope that we will continue to maintain our excellent working relationship in the years to come! I hope that we may receive further clients through Senior Citizen's Council! In short, they are fantastic! I cannot say enough good things about them! Please keep them in mind as they are outstanding! Thank You! Tim Moore (Basil ACH LLC in Tigard)

Absolutely a wonderful program with people who are dedicated to assisting the Seniors of our community. There is not another program in Oregon that even comes close to advocating for and assisting Seniors. Without this program, many Seniors and Senior's families would be left to fend for themselves. An OUTSTANDING program run by OUTSTANDING people.

As a senior services case manager, I rely on Senior Council to provide guardianship, conservatorship, and guardianship diversion services to my very vulnerable clients. I appreciate each employees' total dedication to their work. This agency is one of action. The staff attempts to act preemptively rather than wait for a crisis to happen, although crisis often occur. That is the nature of the population that Senior Council serves. I am thankful for all the help and input I receive from the Senior Council staff. Keep doing what you're doing!

I have worked for years and with hundreds of people but the people at Clackamas County Senior Citizens Council are the finest. They work tirelessly it seems for the betterment of many unfortunate folks in our community far and wide to protect, provide and advocate for them. They literally save peoples' lives over and over again. The Council is always there for support as we work together to care for a multitude of unfortunate folks who have for one reason or another been left behind, been forgotten or have even been exploited and abused. All that comes to an end unter the Councils' oversight and support. It is a great pleasure of mine to be associated with the Senior Citizens Council Teresa Kaady, Administrator, Rose Linn Vintage Place

I have had the good fortune of working with Senior Council since 1974. As a case manager for seniors, I was delighted to find their services for my client. When assigned to Adult Protective Services, I started working closely with their guardianship/conservatorship program, and later became a member of their advisory board. I continue to serve on the board after my retirement from government service because of the dedication of staff, and quality service from the organization. They fill many of the gaps in social services in Clackamas County, while operating with the very limited funds that is the pligt of many non-profits.
