Loneliness can be felt by anyone of any age, and the holiday season can be a particularly tough time. If you need support, help is just a phone call away.

The Senior Loneliness Line of Oregon is a free hotline that people ages 60+ can call when they want to talk to someone, for any reason. Your information is completely confidential, and no one will follow up with you unless you request a call.

The David Romprey Oregon Warmline or Oregon Youth Line, both available 24/7, can also offer confidential support for people experiencing loneliness.

If you or someone you know is struggling with their mental health, help is always available. 988 provides a 24/7 connection to confidential support. Call or text 988 or chat at 988lifeline.org.

The West Coast Health Alliance continues to strongly recommend vaccines to protect our children, noting that rigorous research of millions of people in multiple countries over decades provides high quality evidence that vaccines are not linked to autism.

The Alliance is deeply concerned about inaccurate claims to the contrary recently posted on the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.

As cooler weather arrives, so does cold and flu season. While these cold and flu viruses can leave you feeling under the weather, antibiotics won’t help—they only work against bacterial infections.

Using antibiotics wisely helps keep us healthy and fights antibiotic resistance.

This Antibiotic Awareness Week join us as we recognize the importance of appropriate antibiotic use.
