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.

Page Advancement

Specific LGBTQ+ Support for Young Adults was Removed from 988 Lifeline

988 will still take calls; additional resources below.

Effective July 17, 2025

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is removing the “Press 3” option that connected LGBTQ+ youth to specialized, affirming counselors.

This change is the result of a federal budget cuts which eliminated funding for LGBTQ-specific services. General 988 support remains available, but LGBTQ+ youth will no longer have direct access to trained LGBTQ+ crisis counselors.

988 will still answer calls from everyone, but it will no longer offer identity-specific crisis support.

Specific LGBTQ+ Support for Young Adults was Removed from 988 Lifeline

988 will still take calls; additional resources below.

Effective July 17, 2025

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is removing the “Press 3” option that connected LGBTQ+ youth to specialized, affirming counselors.

This change is the result of a federal budget cuts which eliminated funding for LGBTQ-specific services. General 988 support remains available, but LGBTQ+ youth will no longer have direct access to trained LGBTQ+ crisis counselors.

988 will still answer calls from everyone, but it will no longer offer identity-specific crisis support.
