  • Get OHP and SNAP when you move to OregonYou just moved (or are about to move) to Oregon and need health coverage and food benefits. Oregon is one of the most trans-affirming states in the country, OHP covers gender-affirming care as a legal right, and SNAP can be in your pocket in as little as 7 days if your situation qualifies. This path walks you through every step: closing your old Medicaid, applying through Oregon's ONE portal, surviving the wait, and keeping your benefits long-term.
  • You need cash this weekSometimes the problem is simple and urgent: you need money now, for rent, a bill, a deposit, groceries, or just to get through the week. This path gathers the fastest sources of emergency cash and bill help in the Portland metro, starting with funds made specifically for trans people. Some pay you directly, some pay a bill for you, and some take a little longer but are worth starting today. Needing help with money is not a moral failure. It is what these funds exist for.
