About

The PCC Gerontology Department exists to educate gerontologists who will change the future of aging! Your gift will provide training, research, and special projects designed by our faculty and students that will directly benefit the rapidly aging populations of Oregon and the nation.

The PCC Gerontology Department continues to be on the cutting edge of this dynamic and ever-expanding career field. This fall we introduced an innovative new Gerontology Professional Career Pathway Certificate. Our online classes incorporate demonstration videos and Zoom conferencing that are interactive and provide alternative ways to connect. We also continue to offer both live and virtual internships to serve older persons living in the community or in long-term care settings.

Join us as we work to raise $3,000 for the Gerontology Program fund on Big Give Day by making a gift now! Be sure to encourage your friends to do the same by sharing Big Give Day on social media using the hashtag #PCCBigGiveDay.
