Oregon Everyday Heroes
 
Nominate an Everyday Hero
 
 
 
 
The Oregon Everyday Heroes Campaign is looking for Everyday Heroes from your community.  Do you know someone who noticed unusual things that are consistent with possible elder abuse and did something about it – either investigation on their own or by reporting it to professionals?  Was harm averted or discovered as a result of their action?
 
The Oregon Everyday Heroes Campaign honors individuals whose acts of courage and kindness make them Everyday Heroes in keeping elders safe in our communities.
 
Nomination Guidelines
 
  • The nominee performed the heroic act between September 2009 and September 2010.
  • If the heroic act is job-related, the nominee went above and beyond the normal scope of the job to keep elders safe or prevent abuse.
  • The nominee is a resident of or employed in the state of Oregon.
