Calendar Event Sorting

At the top, the 24/7/365 SAMHSA Disaster Helpline and similar links.

Next, Bundled “All Day” Events

Some organizations (like 12 step recovery programs, AA, NA, AlAnon, etc.) have so many events happening throughout the day that they need to be in a bundled listing to spare endless scrolling.  Often there is a link to look up events by zip code and other criteria.

Lastly, Time-Specific Events

So you can see what’s happening in the next hours, time specific events are tagged and listed by start time from 12:01am early morning to 11:59pm late night.  There can be events and warmlines operating in different time zones, though we try to list all in Oregon’s Pacific Time Zone.

NW NAR-ANON – Narateen Virtual Meeting – Narateen Pacific Northwest – Tuesdays @ Online Via ZOOM
Mar 25 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Narateen

Narateen Pacific NW Online Meeting

Tuesdays 4-5 PM PST

What is Narateen?

Narateen groups, which are part of the Nar-Anon fellowship, are formed to provide support to teenage family members and friends of addicts. A Narateen group is a safe environment where teenagers can share and work on their recovery.

Through group meetings, young people learn effective ways of coping from each other, while gaining some peace of mind and hope for a better way to live. Members help one another by sharing their experiences, strength, and hope.

To protect everyone’s anonymity, we only use first names. The names and stories shared in confidence aren’t repeated outside of group meetings. You won’t be forced to speak, and you can always ask questions after meetings. We understand how you feel, so know that it’s a great relief to learn more effective ways to cope with this disease. And remember, you’re no longer alone.

Please note, we are not allowed to include meeting log-in information. Teens (or their parents or guardians) must email the contact listed below in order to receive the information directly.

Email narateenPNW@Yahoo.com

 

Newcomer’s Welcome©

The Nar-Anon Family Groups is primarily for those who know or have known a feeling of desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have traveled that unhappy road too, and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind. Narateen is part of the Nar-Anon program for teens affected by someone else’s addiction.

When you come into the family group, you are no longer alone, but among true friends who understand your problem as few others could. We respect your confidence and anonymity as we know you will respect ours. We hope to give you the assurance that no situation is too difficult and no unhappiness is too great to be overcome.

Our program, which is not a religious one but a spiritual way of life, is based on the Twelve Steps of Nar-Anon. We’ve found that the working of these steps will bring the solution to practically any problem. We urge you to take this program and its twelve steps seriously. It has been as helpful to us as the Narcotics Anonymous program is to the addict. We only ask for the wisdom and courage to see ourselves as we really are, to do something about ourselves with the help of a Higher Power as we understand this, and for the grace to release our addicts with love and cease trying to change them.

Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to share during the meeting. You may ask questions after the meeting. You’ll soon make friends and will feel very much a part of the group.

With the understanding that addiction is a disease, and the realization that we are powerless over it, as well as over other people’s lives, we are ready to do something useful and constructive with our own. Then, and only then, can we be of any help to others.

NW NAR-ANON – Narateen Virtual Meeting – Stronger Together – Thursdays @ Online Via ZOOM
Mar 27 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Narateen

Stronger Together Online Meeting

Thursdays 3-4 PM PST

What is Narateen?

Narateen groups, which are part of the Nar-Anon fellowship, are formed to provide support to teenage family members and friends of addicts. A Narateen group is a safe environment where teenagers can share and work on their recovery.

Through group meetings, young people learn effective ways of coping from each other, while gaining some peace of mind and hope for a better way to live. Members help one another by sharing their experiences, strength, and hope.

To protect everyone’s anonymity, we only use first names. The names and stories shared in confidence aren’t repeated outside of group meetings. You won’t be forced to speak, and you can always ask questions after meetings. We understand how you feel, so know that it’s a great relief to learn more effective ways to cope with this disease. And remember, you’re no longer alone.

Please note, we are not allowed to include meeting log-in information. Teens (or their parents or guardians) must email the contact listed below in order to receive the information directly.

Email stnarateen@naranonontario.com

 

Newcomer’s Welcome©

The Nar-Anon Family Groups is primarily for those who know or have known a feeling of desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have traveled that unhappy road too, and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind. Narateen is part of the Nar-Anon program for teens affected by someone else’s addiction.

When you come into the family group, you are no longer alone, but among true friends who understand your problem as few others could. We respect your confidence and anonymity as we know you will respect ours. We hope to give you the assurance that no situation is too difficult and no unhappiness is too great to be overcome.

Our program, which is not a religious one but a spiritual way of life, is based on the Twelve Steps of Nar-Anon. We’ve found that the working of these steps will bring the solution to practically any problem. We urge you to take this program and its twelve steps seriously. It has been as helpful to us as the Narcotics Anonymous program is to the addict. We only ask for the wisdom and courage to see ourselves as we really are, to do something about ourselves with the help of a Higher Power as we understand this, and for the grace to release our addicts with love and cease trying to change them.

Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to share during the meeting. You may ask questions after the meeting. You’ll soon make friends and will feel very much a part of the group.

With the understanding that addiction is a disease, and the realization that we are powerless over it, as well as over other people’s lives, we are ready to do something useful and constructive with our own. Then, and only then, can we be of any help to others.

NW NAR-ANON – Narateen Virtual Meeting – HOPE ( Helping Others Positively Express Emotions) – Mondays @ Online Via ZOOM
Mar 31 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Narateen

HOPE (Helping Others Positively Express Emotions)

Mondays 3-4 PM PST

What is Narateen?

Narateen groups, which are part of the Nar-Anon fellowship, are formed to provide support to teenage family members and friends of addicts. A Narateen group is a safe environment where teenagers can share and work on their recovery.

Through group meetings, young people learn effective ways of coping from each other, while gaining some peace of mind and hope for a better way to live. Members help one another by sharing their experiences, strength, and hope.

To protect everyone’s anonymity, we only use first names. The names and stories shared in confidence aren’t repeated outside of group meetings. You won’t be forced to speak, and you can always ask questions after meetings. We understand how you feel, so know that it’s a great relief to learn more effective ways to cope with this disease. And remember, you’re no longer alone.

Please note, we are not allowed to include meeting log-in information. Teens (or their parents or guardians) must email the contact listed below in order to receive the information directly.

Email narateenrecovery@outlook.com

 

Newcomer’s Welcome©

The Nar-Anon Family Groups is primarily for those who know or have known a feeling of desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have traveled that unhappy road too, and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind. Narateen is part of the Nar-Anon program for teens affected by someone else’s addiction.

When you come into the family group, you are no longer alone, but among true friends who understand your problem as few others could. We respect your confidence and anonymity as we know you will respect ours. We hope to give you the assurance that no situation is too difficult and no unhappiness is too great to be overcome.

Our program, which is not a religious one but a spiritual way of life, is based on the Twelve Steps of Nar-Anon. We’ve found that the working of these steps will bring the solution to practically any problem. We urge you to take this program and its twelve steps seriously. It has been as helpful to us as the Narcotics Anonymous program is to the addict. We only ask for the wisdom and courage to see ourselves as we really are, to do something about ourselves with the help of a Higher Power as we understand this, and for the grace to release our addicts with love and cease trying to change them.

Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to share during the meeting. You may ask questions after the meeting. You’ll soon make friends and will feel very much a part of the group.

With the understanding that addiction is a disease, and the realization that we are powerless over it, as well as over other people’s lives, we are ready to do something useful and constructive with our own. Then, and only then, can we be of any help to others.

Narateen

Narateen Pacific NW Online Meeting

Tuesdays 4-5 PM PST

What is Narateen?

Narateen groups, which are part of the Nar-Anon fellowship, are formed to provide support to teenage family members and friends of addicts. A Narateen group is a safe environment where teenagers can share and work on their recovery.

Through group meetings, young people learn effective ways of coping from each other, while gaining some peace of mind and hope for a better way to live. Members help one another by sharing their experiences, strength, and hope.

To protect everyone’s anonymity, we only use first names. The names and stories shared in confidence aren’t repeated outside of group meetings. You won’t be forced to speak, and you can always ask questions after meetings. We understand how you feel, so know that it’s a great relief to learn more effective ways to cope with this disease. And remember, you’re no longer alone.

Please note, we are not allowed to include meeting log-in information. Teens (or their parents or guardians) must email the contact listed below in order to receive the information directly.

Newcomer’s Welcome©

The Nar-Anon Family Groups is primarily for those who know or have known a feeling of desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have traveled that unhappy road too, and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind. Narateen is part of the Nar-Anon program for teens affected by someone else’s addiction.

When you come into the family group, you are no longer alone, but among true friends who understand your problem as few others could. We respect your confidence and anonymity as we know you will respect ours. We hope to give you the assurance that no situation is too difficult and no unhappiness is too great to be overcome.

Our program, which is not a religious one but a spiritual way of life, is based on the Twelve Steps of Nar-Anon. We’ve found that the working of these steps will bring the solution to practically any problem. We urge you to take this program and its twelve steps seriously. It has been as helpful to us as the Narcotics Anonymous program is to the addict. We only ask for the wisdom and courage to see ourselves as we really are, to do something about ourselves with the help of a Higher Power as we understand this, and for the grace to release our addicts with love and cease trying to change them.

Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to share during the meeting. You may ask questions after the meeting. You’ll soon make friends and will feel very much a part of the group.

With the understanding that addiction is a disease, and the realization that we are powerless over it, as well as over other people’s lives, we are ready to do something useful and constructive with our own. Then, and only then, can we be of any help to others.
