Oregon Updates Behavioral Health Resource Network Addiction Helpline

Oregon's behavioral health resource network (BHRN) helpline has undergone an update through a new contract. Health Resources in Action (HRiA), a non-profit organization based in Boston, was selected as the new contractor for the helpline, replacing Lines for Life. The $2.8 million contract will last 18 months.

People seeking services and supports for drug and addiction concerns can now access the refreshed helpline to connect individuals more efficiently with treatment, housing, and overdose prevention provider organizations within the statewide behavioral health resource networks (BHRNs).

The helpline will continue to be a statewide public resource for addiction screening . . .
