We’re excited to introduce three new members to the OCJ team: Angela Donley, MSW, as our new Policy Analyst, and Jeremy Woodson and Grace Hashiguchi as Communications Associates. They each bring a wealth of expertise and a strong passion for advancing OCJ’s mission to support and protect consumers.
Can you believe it’s been almost a month since we hosted a party with over 90 guests to launch our first Consumer Confidence Comic, Purchasing a Used Car? We want to give a huge shoutout to our friends, family, colleagues, and collaborators for joining us on June 14 to celebrate the launch of this new educational resource. The event was unforgettable!
Watch out for common auto scams and schemes to help you make informed decisions and keep your car buying journey on track.
OCJ is thrilled to introduce "Purchasing a Used Car," its inaugural Consumer Confidence Comic. This comic combines a used car buying guide with an interactive coloring book for all Oregonians.
You did everything right in purchasing your used car from a dealer. Despite this, before long, you start experiencing problems. First, it’s a check engine light, then next, it’s overheating, leaking fluids, or you hear a knocking noise from the engine. Your next steps at this point are critical if you want the dealer to make things right.
Our comic offers tips and insights for purchasing a used car with confidence.
Explore key tips for buying a used car. Learn to avoid common pitfalls that support informed choices at the dealership.
If buying a used car, you may need financing for your purchase. For many consumers, auto financing is a complicated and hard-to-understand process, even for those who have previously financed vehicles. Learn how financing works and how to maximize financing on your next vehicle purchase.
OCJ hosted our first CLE Event and Networking Reception on March 29 at the Oregon State Bar Conference Center in Tigard.
Scams are tricky. They are always adapting to take advantage and exploit, causing real harm to individuals and families. The more we know, the safer we can keep ourselves, our families, and our communities.
September was an exciting month, as we welcomed new employees to the Oregon Consumer Justice team!
In June, we began recruitment of Oregonians who have experienced consumer injustice firsthand to participate in our first Community Cohort, serving as engaged and vital members of our organization’s planning work this fall.
