Ellen Klem, Director of Consumer Education and Outreach for the Oregon Department of Justice
Her mission is simple - prevent financial harm to Oregonians, especially older adults, Oregonians whose first language is not English, and students who have incurred significant education related debt.
Before joining the Oregon Department of Justice, Ellen worked at the American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging in Washington, D.C., where she was responsible for research, policy development, advocacy, education, and training. Ellen received her bachelor’s degree from James Madison College at Michigan State University and a J.D. from Case Western Reserve University School of Law.
