Who We Are

Promoting a Thriving Region

We help local communities collaborate to solve problems and connects member governments, businesses, and individuals with a wide array of services.
Your Regional Partner Since 1967

We're Helping Our Region Work Together

Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments (CW or Cascades West) was formed in 1967 as a voluntary association of governments to carry out a variety of local, state, and federal programs. Today, our members include three counties, 20 cities, one port, and one tribe across the Linn, Benton, and Lincoln County region. 

Cascades West helps communities collaborate to solve problems and connects member governments, businesses, and individuals with a wide array of services. Our role in the region is further strengthened through recognition by the State of Oregon and the federal government in transportation, aging, economic development, business lending, and regional planning.

As your Area Agency on Aging serving Linn, Benton, and Lincoln Counties, we offer a suite of holistic services for seniors, people with disabilities, and caregivers.
