Mission Statement
Our mission is to offer services not provided by other agencies for homebound, frail and geographically isolated individuals.

Description
Our nonprofit, the Senior Citizens Council of Clackamas County, serves seniors and adults with disabilities who face abuse, neglect, or exploitation. We offer unique programs:
