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.

Whether You are 13 or 83,
We will be Here for You
Each person is on their own journey, and how to come out, or if to come out, is a very individual choice.
Coming out can mean different things to different people. Everything starts with coming out to yourself, and that can take time and support. We are here to provide you with that support. For some people, coming out can also include friends and family. But each person gets to make those choices in their own time.
While we never tell someone whether they should come out, we are here with you to think about those big decisions and to provide the care and safe space you deserve.
We Got You! We’re Glad You Found Us. No Matter Where You are on Your Journey, We are Here for You.

There are no recordings made of your conversation.
If you would like us to search for local resources near you, we might ask for your zip code/postal code or city, state, or country. We will never ask for your exact address.
Sometimes our conversations can be heavy, and a person might need to end the call. That’s ok. You will not be judged, and we’re very glad you spoke to us for the amount of time you did.
We don’t call other suicide hotlines, 911, or rescue services on your behalf. While we will not make those calls for you, we will do our best to provide you with the phone numbers to call for yourself if you choose, and we will stay on the line if you like (The exception is if you make a credible threat to someone else).
If you attempt to start a call during open hours and can’t get through, that means that all of our volunteers are currently talking with other people. Please try back in a few minutes. Should you still not be able to get through, you are always welcome to email us at [email protected].

If negative comments do happen, they will be removed, but it may be a chance for the chatroom collectively to reflect how, as a community, they can support each other within the room and take that positive energy with them.

1-on-1 Online Peer Support Chat
Saturdays – 9:00AM – 2:00PM PST
There can be times when using the phone to find support might not feel safe or comfortable.
We provide a confidential space online. Here you can connect with a trained LGBTQIA+ peer support volunteer to have a web-based conversation. We discuss many different issues and concerns including, but not limited to, coming out issues, gender and/or sexuality identities, relationship concerns, bullying, workplace issues, HIV/AIDS anxiety, safer-sex information, suicide, and much more.
Along with peer support, listening, and affirmation, our volunteers can access the largest LGBTQIA+ resource database of its kind in the world (www.LGBTnearMe.org) to provide additional resources.
Hotline calls can be answered from the United States and Canada, while online chats are available from anywhere in the world. As long as you have access to our website and are able to have a conversation in English, we are here for you.
Fully staffed by real LGBTQIA+ volunteers, never bots or Ai.

LGBT National Senior Hotline
888-234-7243
Saturdays – 9:00AM to 2:00PM PST
On the LGBT National Senior Hotline, we provide a confidential safe space where callers of any age can speak about sexual orientation or gender identity/expression issues. This includes coming out issues, relationship concerns, elder abuse, family dynamics, HIV/AIDS anxiety, safer sex information, suicide, and much more.
Sometimes you just need to be heard. We’re here. You deserve respect, support, affirmation, and acceptance.
We don’t give advice, and we never tell you what you should do. Ultimately, those choices are yours to make, but we are here to help you on your journey.
- Our highly trained & dedicated LGBTQIA+ volunteers are here to provide free & confidential services.
- We offer support, information, and local resources throughout the United States and beyond.
- We don’t report calls to outside organizations.
- We answer all of our own calls, we don’t outsource.
Calling the Senior Hotline
We provide a safe space while on a call.
All of our peer support volunteers are trained and identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Our calls are confidential. We don’t know who you are.
There are no recordings made of your conversation.
If you would like us to search for local resources near you, we might ask for your zip code/postal code or city, state, or country. We will never ask for your exact address.
Sometimes our conversations can be heavy, and a person might need to end the call. That’s ok. You will not be judged, and we’re very glad you spoke to us for the amount of time you did.
We don’t call other suicide hotlines, 911, or rescue services on your behalf. While we will not make those calls for you, we will do our best to provide you with the phone numbers to call for yourself if you choose, and we will stay on the line if you like (The exception is if you make a credible threat to someone else).
If you attempt to start a call during open hours and can’t get through, that means that all of our volunteers are currently talking with other people. Please try back in a few minutes. Should you still not be able to get through, you are always welcome to email us at [email protected].

THE LGBT NATIONAL COMING OUT SUPPORT HOTLINE
888-688-5428 (888-OUT-LGBT)
Whether You are 13 or 83,
We will be Here for You
Saturdays – 9:00AM to 2:00PM PST
Each person is on their own journey, and how to come out, or if to come out, is a very individual choice.
Coming out can mean different things to different people. Everything starts with coming out to yourself, and that can take time and support. We are here to provide you with that support. For some people, coming out can also include friends and family. But each person gets to make those choices in their own time.
While we never tell someone whether they should come out, we are here with you to think about those big decisions and to provide the care and safe space you deserve.
We Got You! We’re Glad You Found Us. No Matter Where You are on Your Journey, We are Here for You.
