Boom Goes The Stigma

In July 2021, Max Margolis was hired by Lines for Life to coordinate the Construction Suicide Prevention Partnership (CSPP) project. CSPP is a new, innovative, and collaborative project between Lines for Life and Northwest Regions' Construction Industry.

Max grew up in Pittsburgh, PA., in a smoke-filled, chaotic, yet loving home with his four sisters.

Max has a B.A. in Political Science from Ohio University. Since moving to Portland in 1997, he has worked to help communities address public health, public safety, and education issues.

Max brings an empathetic, humorous, and energetic perspective to his work. While Max dislikes writing about himself in the third person, he does enjoy writing op-eds, discussing the paradoxes and contradictions of life, reading, debating, hiking, being a husband, and being a dad to his teenage daughter.
