In adulthood, DCHS supports people with disabilities who want to live in their own homes, helps people stay in affordable homes, and provides safety and support for survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
DCHS supports older adults by helping older veterans navigate public programs theyve earned from their service, setting up classes at a senior-centers, and protecting older or disabled people from abuse.
Additionally, DCHS designs programs, services, and funding to provide stability for Multnomah County residents across the lifespan, uplift our community members in times of need, and invest in innovative, future- oriented approaches to human services that prevent crises, build assets and nurture self-determination within our communities. Our commitment is to making Multnomah County an inclusive place to live, and one that is fairer and more just to everyone.
