From 2024 to 2025, Oregon saw one of the largest increases in homeless veterans in the U.S. Now, the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) is working to reverse that trend by distributing millions in grant funding to community organizations.

On September 16, the VA announced via press release it has awarded over $38 million in grants to 22 organizations in Oregon. Funding will go towards helping Oregon veterans who are either currently homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in 2027.

According to the VA, the funding is part of a nationwide $1.17 billion in grants awarded to over 680 organizations across the U.S.

Part of the grant funding was distributed through the agency's Supportive Services for Veteran Families program, which aims to provide low-income veteran families with housing support. Seven organizations operating in Oregon received funding from this program.

Another 15 Oregon-based organizations, including ones based in Portland, Salem, Eugene, Corvallis, Medford and Beaverton, received funding through the Grant and Per Diem program, which provides transitional housing and case management support for veterans

A zipper merge is now in place for drivers traveling on Oregon 42 from Winston Interstate 5.

Dan Latham of the Oregon Department of Transportation said new signs and pavement markings were added early Thursday morning directing eastbound Oregon 42 drivers to take turns merging near the bridge over Interstate 5, where two lanes narrow to one.

Latham said under the old pattern, most drivers would get in the left lane miles before the merge point. The lane imbalance often stretched back to Kelly’s Corner and beyond, creating congestion, causing delays and affecting operations at upstream intersections.

Drivers are now encouraged to use both lanes all the way to the merge point, then take turns merging like the teeth of a zipper.

Latham said cooperation is the key to making the new system work. Neither lane has priority. The new signs and pavement markings suggest that drivers in both lanes need to move over.

The workshop was sponsored and facilitated by the Oregon Center on Behavioral Health and Justice Integration. The organization offers free SIM workshops to Oregon communities through a grant process, with the goal of helping communities strengthen connections between behavioral health services and the justice system. Douglas County Juvenile Director Wendy Lang was selected to participate in one of the SIM workshops offered each year by OCBHJI.

While Sutherlin's sidewalks are usually empty on early mornings, drivers commuting across Central Avenue saw them lined with students sharing a singular message: Those struggling with mental health are not alone.

The display was Sutherlin middle and high school's 5th annual Signs of Hope Campaign, an annual student gathering held between students and school staff to raise awareness for suicide.

From 7–8 a.m. on Wednesday, participants waved signs with positive and encouraging messages, such as "you matter," "tomorrow needs you" or "dial 988 no suicide." Passing cars honked to show their support as the school's bulldog mascot danced and waved.

According to Sutherlin Middle School councilor Amanda Roig, the event began five years ago as a way to participate in National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. As the years progress, tragedies have made participation particularly significant for Sutherlin.

"We lost a student a couple of years ago to suicide and a lot of community members," Roig said. "I think that it's important to show people that they matter and that someone cares about them and that there's help...They don't have to be alone in it."

Information from DFPA said just after 4:30 p.m. the agency along with Central Douglas Fire & Rescue, Roseburg Fire Department, Sutherlin Fire Department, Lookingglass Rural Fire District, and the Myrtle Creek Fire Department were dispatched to a natural cover fire near the 200 block of Dodson View Road, just off Roberts Creek Road.

The 58th annual Winston-Dillard Melon Festival will take place Friday, September 18th, through Sunday, September 20th, at Riverbend Park in Winston. This year’s theme is “Watermelon Wonderland.”

A release from festival organizers said the event is a longstanding Winston-Dillard community tradition. The first festival was organized by the Winston-Dillard Lions Club in 1969. Its history is connected to the area’s melon-growing heritage, which dates to the late 1800s. By the 1940s, melons grown in the area were being shipped under the “Pride of Dillard” name.

The three-day festival will include live entertainment, food and craft vendors, children’s games, bingo, mud volleyball, a parade, car shows, a talent show and several traditional festival contests. Children’s games and the festival’s classic Heart Game will be played throughout the weekend.

Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read is reacting to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision rejecting President Donald Trump’s attempt to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

A release from Read said the move blocks changes that would have caused a major disruption just days before the first ballots are sent to Oregon voters.

Read said the decision is the latest in a series of court rulings preserving states’ constitutionally granted authority to administer elections and allowing existing mail-voting to remain in place for the midterms.
