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.

There are over 150+ WARMLINES throughout the country! Each organization has different hours of operation, some only accept in-state calls while others operate nationwide and will take calls from anywhere. Most are English speaking but there are a growing number of organizations that offer non-English speaking services.

LifeRing Secular Recovery
24 Hour Recovery Chat Room
LifeRing Secular Recovery is an organization of people who share practical experiences and sobriety support. There are as many ways to live free of illicit or non-medically indicated drugs and alcohol as there are stories of successful sober people.
Many LifeRing members attend other kinds of meetings or recovery programs, and we honor those decisions. Our meetings, whether in person or online, consist of addicts using their Sober Self to connect with the Sober Self of other addicts. We share advice, understanding, and encouragement. We focus primarily on our current lives, not on the hurts and damages of the past. Two addicts, talking Sober-Self to Sober-Self, learn from each other, and gain strength from each other.

THE LIFERING EXPERIENCE
Connection and Community
The LifeRing approach works mainly by bringing people together. The main purpose of LifeRing meetings is to reinforce the desire to get sober that lives within each of us.
LifeRing recovery meetings exist not to judge, shame, or guilt anyone — they exist to support building a sober present and future.
LifeRing is uncompromising about the need for abstinence, but very flexible about how to get there and stay there. Only one step is asked: don’t drink or use, no matter what. Sobriety becomes the priority, and the community supports making any changes necessary toward that end.
THE LIFERING 3-S PHILOSOPHY
Sobriety · Abstinence from alcohol and other addictive drugs, unless medically indicated and prescribed. LifeRing supports medically-assisted recovery as a decision between patients and their treatment providers.
Secularity · Out of respect for people of all faiths and none, LifeRing conducts meetings in a secular way — no prayer or religious content.
Self-Empowerment · Recovery is based on self-empowerment, motivation, and individual efforts. Each person decides what works and builds their sobriety on that foundation.

ABOUT THIS MEETING
Welcome to all genders, races, creeds, etc. Leave/Keep Substance or Behavioral issues Behind YOU!…SYS!! Early (today), Mid and Post-Recovery Peeps Welcome. Come as you Are!!
WHAT IS RECOVERY DHARMA?
Recovery Dharma is a peer-led movement and community that is unified by our trust in the potential of each of us to recover and find freedom from the suffering of addiction. We believe that the traditional Buddhist teachings, often referred to as the Dharma, offer a powerful approach to healing from addiction and living a life of true freedom.
We believe that recovery means empowerment, and we support each other as partners walking the path together. We believe that recovery is rooted in finding our own inner wisdom and individual journeys.
Recovery Dharma is founded on, and inspired by, Buddhism that originated in India and later on flourished in other regions of Asia (e.g., South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia). We deeply appreciate the Buddhist heritage that was protected and freely offered by the ancestors of these cultures.
Substance Abuse Recovery Cohort
This cohort-based recovery group emphasizes the power of community to overcome addiction. By experiencing treatment as a unit, members form strong friendships and a lasting support network. This approach promotes a sense of belonging and accountability that is vital for long-term recovery and personal transformation.

PEER SUPPORT MEETINGS
LifeRing Canada Online — How Was Your Week? Wednesday Meeting
Every Wednesday · 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM PT · via Zoom · FREE
Connect with peers in a confidential, judgment-free space for honest conversations about your recovery journey. LifeRing welcomes people of all cultures, identities, faiths, and none to gather together and support each other’s substance-free journeys.
Each session is led by a trained Convenor — a volunteer who is personally in recovery. After a short opening, the Convenor asks the theme question, “How Was Your Week?” Participants take turns sharing recovery successes and challenges from the past week, and any concerns for the week ahead. Dialogue, feedback, and mutual support are encouraged after each share.
Meetings are confidential — what is said and who attends stays in the room. There is no requirement to label or identify yourself. Use of “I” statements is encouraged. All recovery paths are respected; everyone’s journey is unique.
Meetings are free of charge. Voluntary donations to cover Zoom and operating costs are welcome. Attendance can be credited by courts and treatment programs.

ABOUT THIS MEETING
Welcome to all genders, races, creeds, etc. Leave/Keep Substance or Behavioral issues Behind YOU!…SYS!! Early (today), Mid and Post-Recovery Peeps Welcome. Come as you Are!!
WHAT IS RECOVERY DHARMA?
Recovery Dharma is a peer-led movement and community that is unified by our trust in the potential of each of us to recover and find freedom from the suffering of addiction. We believe that the traditional Buddhist teachings, often referred to as the Dharma, offer a powerful approach to healing from addiction and living a life of true freedom.
We believe that recovery means empowerment, and we support each other as partners walking the path together. We believe that recovery is rooted in finding our own inner wisdom and individual journeys.
Recovery Dharma is founded on, and inspired by, Buddhism that originated in India and later on flourished in other regions of Asia (e.g., South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia). We deeply appreciate the Buddhist heritage that was protected and freely offered by the ancestors of these cultures.

Services include a seven-days-a-week drop-in center with peer support specialists, peer wellness specialists, certified recovery mentors, support groups, wellness activities, resource navigation, and community events such as the annual Hands Across the Bridge celebration.

LifeRing Secular Recovery
24 Hour Recovery Chat Room
LifeRing Secular Recovery is an organization of people who share practical experiences and sobriety support. There are as many ways to live free of illicit or non-medically indicated drugs and alcohol as there are stories of successful sober people.
Many LifeRing members attend other kinds of meetings or recovery programs, and we honor those decisions. Our meetings, whether in person or online, consist of addicts using their Sober Self to connect with the Sober Self of other addicts. We share advice, understanding, and encouragement. We focus primarily on our current lives, not on the hurts and damages of the past. Two addicts, talking Sober-Self to Sober-Self, learn from each other, and gain strength from each other.

THE LIFERING EXPERIENCE
Connection and Community
The LifeRing approach works mainly by bringing people together. The main purpose of LifeRing meetings is to reinforce the desire to get sober that lives within each of us.
LifeRing recovery meetings exist not to judge, shame, or guilt anyone — they exist to support building a sober present and future.
LifeRing is uncompromising about the need for abstinence, but very flexible about how to get there and stay there. Only one step is asked: don’t drink or use, no matter what. Sobriety becomes the priority, and the community supports making any changes necessary toward that end.
THE LIFERING 3-S PHILOSOPHY
Sobriety · Abstinence from alcohol and other addictive drugs, unless medically indicated and prescribed. LifeRing supports medically-assisted recovery as a decision between patients and their treatment providers.
Secularity · Out of respect for people of all faiths and none, LifeRing conducts meetings in a secular way — no prayer or religious content.
Self-Empowerment · Recovery is based on self-empowerment, motivation, and individual efforts. Each person decides what works and builds their sobriety on that foundation.
