Rep. Shannon Jones Isadore is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, born and raised in Northeast Portland. She is a first-term representative of House District 33 which includes Downtown, Northwest, Linnton, and Cathedral Park. Growing up in the vibrant Albina neighborhood with her multi-generational family, surrounded by a large and tight-knit community, Shannon learned the importance of community and resilience early in life. Shannon was the first in her family to attend college, eventually earning a Master’s degree in Family Psychotherapy. Since founding Oregon Change Clinic in 2021, she has worked collaboratively across state, local, and county levels to significantly expand addiction treatment access and transform neglected properties into supportive housing. During her time as an investment broker, Rep. Isadore worked with middle-income families, educating them on saving, investing money, and building intergenerational wealth.

Shannon brings her commitment to effective, compassionate solutions to the Oregon State Legislature where she is dedicated to addressing some of the most pressing issues facing Oregonians: access to mental health services, addressing the addiction crisis, and building a safe and thriving city. As a resident of Northwest Portland and a business owner, downtown revitalization is a top priority for Shannon and she is excited to lead Portland’s city center.
