About Tamar
Her Story, Told With Dignity.
Born in Portland. Known by its elders. Building the care she watched her community go without.
Her Story
Rooted in Community. Driven by Purpose.
Tamar Green was born and raised in Portland, known by the community's elders since she was a child. Growing up, she watched her own family carry the weight of thin resources and a system that was hard to navigate. That experience became her calling.
Today she's a birth doula, credentialed Community Health Worker, educator, and advocate, building the care she watched her community go without.
"She is building the care she watched her community go without."
