Are You Interested in Helping the Most Vulnerable?

Posted on by Mark Noonan
When a person is unable to manage his or her physical needs and health care then a guardian is appointed by the court. Elders in Action is an active partner with Multnomah County Public Guardian Program and SAVO (Special Advocates for Vulnerable Oregonians). These programs use volunteers in different capacities that are outlined below. We are assisting both of these important programs by actively recruiting volunteers. Please consider giving some of your time and energy to help this most vulnerable population.

Multnomah County Public Guardian Program

Some individuals have medical or cognitive problems that interfere with their ability to act in their own best interest and to provide for their own basic needs.

The Multnomah County Public Guardian Program serves as a safety net for high-risk county residents that require services that can be provided only by a guardianship or conservatorship.

Elders in Action supports the program by recruitingPublic Guardian Personal Advocate Volunteers. Volunteers support the Deputy Public Guardians by:

  • On-site client visits for service coordination and monitoring
  • Accompany clients to routine medical appointments, attend other client meetings
  • Helping clients to shop
  • Provide support, assist with quality of life enhancements

This volunteer opportunity offers a flexible schedule working in a combination of home, community and at the Multnomah County Lincoln Building downtown. Some of the benefits of this program are:

  • Opportunity to develop advocacy skills and experience working with vulnerable individuals
  • Develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of resources and services in Multnomah County
  • Volunteer in a professional setting and work in team environment
  • Mileage reimbursement for travel
If this sounds like a project you would like to invest your time and energy in then email Mark Noonan or call 503-595-7533 for more information. Training is coming up in October, so it is great timing.

as a first-ever, full-scale Multnomah County volunteerguardianship monitoring and assistance program. Elders in Action has been a supporter of the program since its inception.

SAVO’S Misson is to Assist the Court in Protecting Vulnerable Oregonians

The mission will be to assist the court in protecting vulnerable Oregonians by usingtrained and supervised volunteers to monitor the guardianship proceedings toreduce the potential for abuse, neglect, and exploitation.

SAVO Volunteer Monitors will provide an independent source of information to the court. Volunteer Monitors undergo training in effective guardianship monitoring from experienced trainers in the field of gerontology, elder law and disability services. Training topics include the nature of guardianship cases and recognizing abuse, neglect and exploitation. Once assigned a case, volunteer monitors will flag potential problems through review of reports and personal visits with protected persons. Concerns will then be forwarded to the Probate Court for follow-up action.


SAVO is looking for volunteers who want to make a lasting difference in the lives of adults who are vulnerable to neglect, abuse and exploitation. If you are interested in helping this Elders in Action partner, click here to fill out the form and you’ll be contact by one of their staff members.
