Received a fine for possession?

If you received a citation for possessing small amounts of drugs in Oregon (called a “Class E violation”), you can have the fine waived by calling the Oregon Recovery Center Hotline and completing a health assessment.

1. Call us at (833) 975-0505. Our trained Peer Support Specialists will provide a screening for substance use, mental health and other supportive service referrals you might need.

2. Once the screening is complete, we will refer you to appropriate services.

3. We will email you a letter that confirms you have completed the health assessment. Bring it to court to waive your fine.

Harm reduction

Harm reduction saves lives. These services keep people who use drugs, like fentanyl or alcohol, safe by offering non-judgmental care that improves their quality of life and health, prevents and manages injury and disease, and prevents fatal overdoses. Harm reduction honors the dignity and wellbeing of each person.

Treatment

Treatment combines medical care, like supporting people through withdrawal symptoms or starting medication that helps with cravings, with services that help you learn coping skills. Treatment can happen in an inpatient or outpatient setting, and you and your treatment provider decide together what kind of treatment is right for you.

Recovery

Being in recovery means making changes over time that can help you feel better, live life on your own terms, and work toward reaching your goals. Recovery looks different for everyone and might include medication-assisted treatment, self-help or support groups, recovery coaching, or being part of recovery communities.

Supportive services

A person’s recovery is best supported when they have everything they need to live well. In addition to substance use services, services like housing support, employment assistance, and food insecurity services are also available.

Behavioral Health Resource Networks (BHRNs)

Behavioral Health Resource Networks (BHRNs) are networks of organizations that provide trauma-informed, culturally specific services to people who need treatment and support for substance use concerns. The services they provide include screening for substance use disorder, substance use disorder treatment, harm reduction services, and peer support services. They also screen for health and social service needs, including housing support. Each county and Tribal area in Oregon has at least one BHRN.

Bluelight’s Mission Statement

Reducing Harm by Educating the Individual

Bluelight is an international, online, harm-reduction community committed to reducing the harms associated with drug use.

Bluelight neither condemns nor condones the use of drugs. Rather, we accept that drug use will always exist irrespective of legal status or societal norms. While there is no truly safe way to use drugs, we understand that prohibition and abstinence are not realistic or desirable solutions for everyone, nor have they been adequate in addressing the serious public health concerns associated with drug use.

While there is no universal definition of drug-related harm reduction, Bluelight believes that through frank and open discussion we are able to deliver accurate information, eliminate misinformation and empower individuals to make wiser, more responsible choices. Our approach is that any idea or concern is worth raising, so that all perspectives and experiences can weigh in and help others decide for themselves what to believe, what actions to take.

Bluelight understands that drug use encompasses a broad range of behaviors, some safer than others, and that drug use can progress towards increased risk with some individuals. We encourage our community to be honest and cognizant of their drug use and understand the warning signs of abuse and addiction before they manifest.

Bluelight also hosts a robust recovery community for those seeking a way out of drug abuse and addiction. These forums invite visitors to discuss addiction and sobriety in a non-judgmental setting, share recovery resources and encourage members to seek help. We believe there are various roads to recovery, including 12-step programs such as Narcotics/Alcoholics Anonymous and alternatives such as SMART Recovery.

Bluelight’s overarching philosophy is simple

Meet people where they are and encourage open dialogue that empowers the individual to be the primary agent of their own physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Like most stimulants, large doses of methamphetamine can result in a strong feeling of euphoria at the expense of physical fatigue and a strong “come-down” as the drug’s effect wears off.

What is Families Anonymous?

Families Anonymous celebrated our 50th Anniversary in 2021. We were formed in 1971 by a group of concerned parents in California who were seeking ways of dealing with the problem of substance abuse and addiction in their children. Our members include parents, grandparents, siblings, spouses, significant others, other family members and friends of those with a current, suspected or former drug problem. We have been one of the best kept secrets in the recovery community, even though we have groups throughout the world.

Families Anonymous is a 12 Step fellowship for the families and friends who have known a feeling of desperation concerning the destructive behavior of someone very near to them, whether caused by drugs, alcohol, or related behavioral problems. When you come into our rooms you are no longer alone, but among friends who have experienced similar problems. Any concerned person is encouraged to attend our meetings, even if there is only a suspicion of a problem.

Your identity is protected in our meetings. We know each other by our first names only. Anonymity of our members is paramount to the success of our program. Not only is anonymity an underlying principle of the program, but it is so important that it is part of our name.

You have nothing to lose but your pain and anger. Read on if you are ready to find the peace and serenity that our members have found through the working of the FA program.

National Harm Reduction Coalition

THE PRINCIPLES OF HARM REDUCTION

Oregon Health Authority encourages use of new app to address gambling harms

Salem, Ore. –Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is highlighting Problem Gambling Awareness Month this March to raise awareness of valuable resources for anyone struggling with problem gambling, including a free digital tool that can aid in curbing gambling.

The app, called Evive, is available for anyone in Oregon seeking to learn safer gambling habits, reduce their gambling or stop gambling all together. The evidence-based mobile tool offers flexible treatment options, access to trained professionals, community support, and ways to reduce time and money spent on betting. 

To learn more, go to https://www.getevive.com/.

“Reducing the stigma of problem gambling is crucial, and some individuals aren’t ready to acknowledge their gambling problem or seek formal treatment,” said Roxann Jones, problem gambling prevention specialist at OHA. “Evive is a great free tool that can help individuals overcome the stigma and assist in this process.”

In Oregon, an estimated 2.6% of the adult population experiences moderate or serious problems with gambling, and another 5.4% of adults are at risk of developing a problem with gambling. An estimated 3.1% of adolescents in Oregon are at risk of or are currently experiencing a gambling disorder.

OHA contracted with Evive in spring of 2024 making it available free to those enrolled in OHA treatment programs. In July of 2024, the Oregon State Lottery contracted with the entity for free access to everyone living in Oregon.

“Easy access to gambling products on your smartphone and other mobile devices can make it difficult to control gambling urges,” said Greta Coe, problem gambling services manager at OHA. “The average age of clients in Oregon’s publicly funded treatment system is 35-50 years old, and most struggle with problem gambling for years before seeking help.”

Help and counseling services are available free to anyone living in Oregon who has problems related to gambling and those directly impacted including family and friends. Some common signs of a person struggling with gambling harms include:

• Being preoccupied with gambling
• Feeling the need to gamble more despite losses
• Gambling alone and/or more often
• Gambling to forget worries, calm nerves or reduce depression
• Losing interest in other things, such as school, work, home life
• Withdrawal from family and friends
• Financial problems from gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble

In Oregon, gambling addiction counseling and support services are confidential and free. Visit the Oregon Problem Gambling Resource, OPGR.org, to learn more or call the Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-877-695-4648 (MY LIMIT).
