The Oregon chapter of the international nonprofit “Dress for Success” was among the very first of the 130 member networks. It started by offering professional suits and clothes to women who couldn’t otherwise afford them. But since 1998, it’s evolved to offering a range of career services. And now it’s opening its most ambitious program yet: WorkWell, a co-working space in NE Portland that includes all those services, plus childcare and more. We talk with Dress for Success Oregon CEO Lindsey Norlander and client Delaney Farve, who owns Tiny Travelers Play Place.
