Whether on Lane Community College’s main campus or elsewhere, there is a multitude of resources in the case that someone is overwhelmed by emotion and needs someone to talk to or they are suffering suicidal thoughts. 

On the main campus is the LCC Counseling Center where drop-in counseling is available in Building 1, Room 103, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.

Off-campus — and available during irregular hours — is the University of Oregon Crisis Line where a live person can be reached from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m., Monday through Friday and 24 hours on weekends.

The National Suicide Prevention Hotline can be called at (800) 273-8255. 

For survivors of sexual assault, there is a local hotline that can be called at (541) 343-SASS (7277). There, a twenty-four-hour crisis support worker can be found that also provides medical and legal advocacy for survivors.

Victims of domestic abuse can find help through the Womenspace Shelter. The shelter can be reached at (541) 485-6513 and a 24-hour companion hotline can be contacted at (800) 281-2800.

YouthLine, found at 1-877-968-8491, is a statewide peer-to-peer confidential hotline for teens in crisis. For text, message “teen2teen” to 83986. There, a peer will respond to talk with people in need.
