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.

First Mondays 4-5 PM PST

Caregiver Support Conversations is an online support group that offers care partners of patients with brain tumors a welcoming space where they can have honest, supportive discussions about the feelings and emotions that accompany their experience.

Volunteer co-facilitators Liz Piña and Kelly Theberge host this monthly support group for caregivers currently supporting a person living with a brain tumor to connect with each other on topics that matter to them.
