Oregon Mental Health Support Services

Oregon Behavioral Health Support Line

Call 1-800-923-HELP (4357)

Help is free and available 24/7. Language interpreters are available.

Oregon Behavioral Health Support Line, in partnership with the Oregon Health Authority, is an emotional support and resource referral line that can assist anyone who is struggling and seeking support. Callers do not need to be in a crisis to contact this line.

Many of us are juggling concerns about wildfires and smoke, COVID-19, political unrest, financial instability, and more, in addition to the everyday things we personally struggle with.

Disasters can leave us feeling increased anxiety, worry, anger, or depression. In these challenging times, we provide emotional support, mental health triage, drug and alcohol counseling, or just connection with a person who cares.

If you or a loved one is feeling worried, upset, or overwhelmed, give us a call. Our call counselor will listen, assess your needs, and problem-solve with referral to community services and resources if needed.

Mental Illness Awareness Week

Five Warning Signs of Mental Illness

Long-lasting sadness or irritability.
Extremely high and low moods.
Excessive fear, worry, or anxiety.
Social withdrawal.
Dramatic changes in eating or sleeping habits.

Each year, millions of Americans face the reality of living with a mental health condition. However, mental illness affects everyone directly or indirectly through family, friends or coworkers. Despite mental illnesses’ reach and prevalence, stigma and misunderstanding are also, unfortunately, widespread.
That is why each year, during the first week of October, NAMI and participants across the country raise awareness of mental illness. Each year, we educate the public, fight stigma and provide support. And each year, our movement grows stronger.
If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. There are many support services and treatment options that may help.”

National Alliance on Mental Illness of Clackamas County (NAMI Clackamas)

Compartiendo Esperanza: Understanding Emotional Health

NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization. NAMI advocates for access to services, treatment, support and research, and is committed to raising awareness and building a community of hope for all of those in need.

In the Latino community, there is little information and understanding about mental health and high levels of stigma. NAMI Clackamas has a variety of programs that target the Latino community.

Compartiendo Esperanza: Understanding Emotional Health is a bilingual program specifically tailored for the Latino community. It includes a 90-minute interactive presentation to be given in different settings (community centers, churches, PTA meetings, etc.)

Program Goals:

Develop positive and lasting relationships with Latino organizations. Educate Latinos about mental health problems, signs, symptoms, treatment and support. Address mental health stigma in the Latino community by providing science- based information on mental health. Increase understanding and awareness of mental health recovery. Introduce NAMI education and support programs to the Latino community.

For questions about this program and other services available in Spanish through NAMI Clackamas, please contact:
