Bringing people and resources together

Power of Connection Events

We bring seniors, neighbors, service providers, and partners into the same room so practical help, shared wisdom, and new friendships can grow.

When people connect, solutions follow.

Community gatherings turn information into real help. By pairing local experts with the seniors they serve, we create space for questions, dialog, and next steps that make aging well more possible.

Energy Saving Solutions for Aging Well

On July 16, 2026, Senior Voices PDX helped organize and sponsor an event at the Community for Positive Aging which brought in a panel of energy and housing experts to share resources and dialog with the community.

The free community gathering—co-hosted with the Community for Positive Aging—focused on energy-saving solutions for aging well: signing up for lower energy bills, finding out about other home upgrades, connecting with neighbors, and an interactive discussion panel with local energy and housing partners.

We're grateful to the partners who made it possible, including PGE, the Energy Homes Program, Energy Trust of Oregon, Mount Tabor Neighborhood Association, GreenSavers, NW Natural, and the Community Energy Project.
