Olgin has died, and the town of Portland, Texas is now faced with a deeply troubling homicide case.

Blue Ridge Humane Society is committed to creating lifelong homes for every pet. BRHS cares for pets awaiting adoption at the Adoption Center and works to ensure the highest quality adoption counseling experience for potential adopters. At our Adoption Center, we assess behavior and treat conditions as necessary with all animals under our care. Prior to adoption, each animal is provided with all the appropriate vaccinations, a microchip, dewormed, and are spayed or neutered. In addition, each pet goes home with a day free health insurance plan. BRHS also provides owner support for BRHS adopters and community pet owners, including low-cost vaccine clinics, pet training classes, behavior consultations and adoption follow-ups. BRHS takes an active role in community outreach through providing animal and youth education programs and projects; coordinates community pet food assistance, emergency vet assistance, and the Spay Neuter Incentive Program SNIP , which is a collaboration with Henderson County, the City of Hendersonville, and the Henderson County Animal Services Center.

Depression disproportionately affects LGBTQ lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer adolescents and young adults. We used a descriptive cross-sectional mixed-methods feasibility study design to evaluate the feasibility of BOWS. Survey data were collected from 79 LGBTQ young adults, and interview data were collected from nine mental health professionals. Almost half of the young adults had clinically significant depressive symptoms. All providers indicated depression as a problem facing this population and a need for BOWS.




Fertility clinic allegedly denied to see them because they were same-sex couple. Beverly Newell, 45, and Kelly Trent, 39, allege a fertility clinic refused to see them due to the fact they are a same-sex couple.
