Wood Lot Program PDF Print E-mail
Energy Assistance

Clatsop Community Action, in conjunction with Clatsop County Sheriff's Department, offers a Wood Lot program.

 

About the program

The program runs from October through April.  A small fee applies for each load of wood.  Clatsop Community Action will contact the people on the waiting list to notify them of the Wood Lot date.  Anyone who has not previously participated in the program will be contacted first.  Participants will need to come to the CCA office to arrange the time to pick up their wood and get their wood voucher.  On the date of pick up the participant must present the Wood Lot Voucher to the work crew personnel in order to receive their wood.

 

Wood Lot Guidelines

Only pick-up Trucks are accepted. No trailers or cars will be accepted as these can cause hazardous situations.  All participants must provide proof of registration for the truck that is being used to pick up the wood. All participants must have the Wood Lot Voucher with them at the time of pick-up. All participants must remain in the vehicle during the entire process. The Deputy supervising the program is in charge & will decide what constitutes a full load. Only a level load will be provided.  If the participant should have a small truck, the decision about whether or not the participant may have a second load will be decided by the Deputy in charge.

 

Contact Information

If you have any questions, or to sign up for the waiting list, please call CCA at (503) 325-1400 or e-mail us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
 
Lifespan Respite PDF Print E-mail
Lifespan Respite

Clatsop Community Action's Lifespan Respite program links individual and family care givers in need of respite care providers. CCA serves as the information and referral service for Lifespan Respite in Clatsop county.  In this capacity CCA helps partner care providers with family care givers needing respite.

 

Respite is temporary, short-term care for children, adults and seniors with special needs, health care concerns, chronic illness, emotional and behavior disorders, or those at risk of abuse or neglect.  This program provides relief to individuals and families who give non-paid full time care to a family member or friend and strengthens the ability of caregivers to continue providing care in the home.

 

The program also provides referral to approved respite providers.  The caregiver can then arrange with a respite provider to come and care for the relative or friend who needs care. 

 

Lifespan Respite is not meant to provide full time care for an individual, but is meant to help provide a caregiver with some time away to go to the doctor, recreate, do grocery shopping, or take care of other personal needs. 

 

The family caregiver must pay the respite provider, but the Lifespan Respite program will reimburse the caregiver up to an amount predetermined through Northwest Senior and Disability Services.  

 

For more information please contact either CCA Respite Coordinator, Lynn Boyle at (503) 325-1400 (e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) or Northwest Senior and Disability Services at (503) 738-5191 (Toll free at 1-800-442-8614).

Personal Care Pantry (Free Store) PDF Print E-mail
Free Store

Clatsop Community Action has a cupboard called the Personal Care Pantry (Free Store).  This cupboard is used for  commodities, other than food, that are frequently requested by people struggling to meet basic needs.  Personal Care Pantry items are obtained from funds donated at local businesses and  from money and supplies given by local fraternal and faith based organizations.   Distributed as they become available are toilet paper, tooth brushes, tooth paste, diapers, shampoo, razors, combs, bars of soap, feminine products, lice kits, can openers, and basic cleaning supplies.

Since the Personal Care Pantry is supported solely by donations, the cupboard is frequently low on supplies.

Clatsop Community Action would like to thank the following Clatsop County businesses for helping to restock the free store by allowing CCA donation cans to be placed in their stores:
