Nick is proud to serve as the Portland City Council liaison to Elders in Action.
Portland’s greatest strength is its active and engaged citizenry - from our youth to our older adults.
Elders in Action focuses on empowering older adults in our community to solve problems, tackle important issues, and help businesses and communities better serve the older customer. Quality of life should never depend on age and welcome the talent and wisdom that older adults share to make communities in Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington Counties more livable for all.
