About the Center

The Clackamas Service Center, formerly the Kendall Community Center, was established in 1973 to assist county residents in crisis. Our goal, then and now, is to offer emergency assistance to those in need until they are able to help themselves. With over 33,000 people in Clackamas County living below the poverty line, our services are greatly needed in the area.
