World AIDS Day is an international day to unite in the fight against HIV/AIDS. It was established in 1988 to combat the stigma against the virus, as well as remember those who have lost their lives.

Today we highlight the real experiences of people living with HIV today. We celebrate the strength, resilience and diversity of the families and communities most affected.

Let’s take a moment to honor those who’ve lost their lives to the virus as well as continue the pursuit for a future where HIV doesn’t stand in the way of anyone’s life.

If you need support call our Parent Warmline 1-833-REACHOR | 1-833-732-2467.

As November comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the many moments of gratitude, connection, and hope we’ve shared this month.

From celebrating families and caregivers to offering support through the Parent Warmline, every conversation and act of care reminds us why this work matters. Together, we’re building a community where every family feels seen, heard, and supported.

As we move into December, we invite you to carry that spirit of connection forward — and to help us continue this work through a year-end gift. Your support makes it possible for Oregon families to find help, healing, and hope when they need it most.

The days after Thanksgiving can bring a mix of feelings — joy, exhaustion, and maybe a little overwhelm. After giving so much of your time and energy to others, this is your reminder to pause and take care of yourself, too.

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated. Take a walk, get some fresh air, spend a quiet moment with a cup of coffee, or simply rest. Small acts of care help restore your energy and make space for calm as the busy holiday season continues.

Remember, you don’t have to do everything at once — and you don’t have to do it alone. The Parent Warmline is always here if you need someone to talk to. Call 1-833-732-2467 to connect with someone who understands.

Take care of yourself. You deserve it.

As the shopping season kicks off, remember that the most meaningful gifts don’t come wrapped — they come through connection, understanding, and support.

At Oregon Family Support Network, we’re here for parents and caregivers year-round, helping families find hope, resources, and community. This season, we invite you to give a gift that lasts — one that strengthens families across Oregon.

Your donation supports peer services, training, and the Parent Warmline, helping ensure every family has someone to turn to.

From all of us at Oregon Family Support Network, Happy Thanksgiving!

We’re deeply grateful for the families, partners, volunteers, and supporters who make our work possible. Your commitment helps us continue building a community where every family feels seen, heard, and supported.

Please note that OFSN offices will be closed on Thursday, November 27, and Friday, November 28, so our team can rest and spend time with loved ones. We’ll reopen on Monday, December 1.

Thank you for being part of the OFSN community and for helping make hope and connection possible across Oregon.

As we head into Thanksgiving, many families feel the pressure rising. Schedules fill up, emotions run high, and expectations pile on.

Today, we invite you to slow down.

Take one deep breath.
Then another.
Give yourself permission to rest for a moment.

You don’t have to have everything perfect.
You don’t have to carry it all at once.
You don’t have to rush.

At Oregon Family Support Network, we see you. We know how much you’re holding, and we want you to have space to simply be.

If today feels overwhelming, try a quick reset:
- Step outside for a few minutes
- Put your hand on your heart and breathe deeply
- Reach out to someone who understands
- Release one thing that does not need to get done today

Your presence matters more than perfection.
Your peace matters more than your to-do list.

Life moves fast, and it is easy to overlook the tiny moments that bring quiet joy. But gratitude is not just something we feel during big celebrations. It is something we practice in the everyday. A warm cup of coffee. A child’s laughter. A kind message from a friend. These small moments remind us that joy is always close by if we slow down enough to notice it.

Gratitude helps us stay grounded, strengthens our relationships, and builds resilience. And the best part is that it does not require anything fancy. It can be as simple as taking a few seconds to acknowledge something going well, sending a quick note of appreciation, or naming one thing that made you smile today.

Joy lives in the details. When we notice the small things, we invite more hope, peace, and connection into our lives. Read more:

As the holiday season approaches, it’s easy to feel pulled in many directions — managing expectations, emotions, and the endless to-do list. If it’s starting to feel like too much, remember that you don’t have to carry it alone.

The Parent Warmline is here to listen, support, and help you find calm in the middle of the chaos. When you need someone who understands, call 1-833-732-2467 to connect with a Family Support Specialist who’s been there.

Take a moment for yourself today — breathe, rest, and reach out. Sometimes, one conversation can make all the difference.

The holidays are coming, and with them can come busy schedules and full calendars. Before things get hectic, take a moment to set boundaries and focus on what truly matters for you and your family.

Creating intentional space for rest, connection, and joy can help keep the season meaningful rather than overwhelming. One tradition we love is setting aside “quiet hours” — time without distractions to rest, talk, or simply be together.

We’d love to hear from you. What’s one family tradition that helps you slow down and stay grounded during the holidays? Share it in the comments below.

To every parent and caregiver balancing appointments, work, and the many demands of daily life — you are doing incredible things every single day.

Your dedication, love, and persistence make a lasting difference for the children and families you support. But even the strongest caregivers need care too. It’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay to rest.

Oregon Family Support Network is here to walk beside you. Find a local support group or connect with a Family Support Specialist at OFSN.org/support.
