Siobhan Maty

Hello, my name is Siobhan Maty and I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Community Health. This is my second year on the Commission and first as Co-Chair.
As a woman and a public health professional, I feel the responsibility to use my skills to work for social change and to improve the health and well being of the communities I serve and of which I am a member. Through the PSU President?s Commission on the Status of Women, I have the opportunity to uphold this responsibility.

Donna Harris
dsharris@pdx.edu
This is my first year on the commission. On campus I have two roles. My first role is as the Assistant to the Director of the Institute on Aging. My second role is as a full-time student at Portland State University. I was interested in the commission as I am a single mom with a college freshman and a kindergartner and I know first hand the hardships that many single parent students experience.
My goal is to find resources in the community that will provide opportunities for single parents to be successful as parents and students.
