Member Appreciation Month is Almost Here and It’s All About You
Posted by Cascade Employers Association on May 11, 2026
For more than 75 years, Cascade Employers Association has been built by members who show up, engage, and invest in doing HR the right way. Because of you, we’ve grown into a trusted partner supporting nearly 600 employers across Oregon and Southwest Washington. That kind of impact doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because of members like you, and that’s exactly why this June, we’re putting the spotlight where it belongs.
What’s Happening in June
We’ve planned a full month of opportunities to connect, learn, and have a little fun along the way. This is our way of saying thank you while delivering real value you can use right away.
