More about this program...

Cordero

Young men who are under the authority of the juvenile court system receive support and encouragement from Assistance League members. Our members celebrate birthdays and accomplishments with these young people. Outings to the beach, restaurants, cultural events and shopping at our Thrift Shop with credit vouchers make a fun experience for all.
This group home is affiliated with The Janus Program.

Discover Oregon Health and Science University

High school juniors and seniors from throughout the state tour the campus and departments at Oregon Health and Science University. These students are interested in pursuing careers in different areas of health services. Members of Assistance League are their escorts on campus leading them from one building to the next. It's an opportunity for everyone to learn.

Life Story Books

These books are created by members for children in Foster Care. Children are given an album of their own history. This includes inoculation records, report cards, mementos, and photographs. When the child leaves the Foster Care system he/she has a book about their life to share with their new family.

Operation School Bell®

Provides new school clothing for elementary schoolchildren in need.
