counselors at M etro Crisis Intervention Service, the m etropol
itan area 24 hour hotline. Calls are up try nearly 1,000 a m onth
over 1985 figures
People call w ith a variety of problem s including suicide,
dom estic violence, parent child co nflict and alcohol and drug
issues. There are also many calls concerning basic needs such
as emergency shelter, food and clothing
Executive Director, Laura S tola r, attributes this increase in
calls to several factors.
The decrease in funding at the feder
al, state and county levels has caused the reduction or elimina
tion of many social program s,” she stated
Also there are
more people calling w ho are experiencing situational crisis
such as unem ploym ent and divorce
A dditionally there has
been as increase in problems experienced by chronically men
tally ill individuals.”
She also feels that the agency, w hich is
funded by M ultnom ah and W ashington Counties and United
Way, is becom ing better know n in the com m unity for its 24
hour counseling, inform ation and referral, and is therefore
being utilized more extensively
To meet the heavy demand of calls, M etro Crisis Interven
