Community for Positive Aging

Organization Description

The Community for Positive Aging's mission is to create a healthier, more inclusive, and deeply connected Portland where adults 55 and older thrive through innovative programming, compassionate support services, and person-centered care.

Health & Safety

We don't have designated parking lots for our Senior Center nor urban residential buildings. The only available parking is street parking.

CfPA serves older adults 55+ and low-income individuals in Portland. Some folks within these populations also have physical and/or mental disabilities.

Student interns will often work alongside their site supervisors to complete operational tasks.

Additional requirements and/or considerations
  • Background Check (e.g. fingerprinting/livescan, driving record)
  • Driver's License
  • Must be 18 or older
