Mental Health Crisis Services
988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
This is the first number you should call if you or a loved one is experiencing any mental health crisis. Specialists are available 24 hours a day and can connect you with the services you need. Please call 911 if the crisis involves a medical emergency.
Crisis & Assessment
When you need immediate support and services no matter the time of day, seek care at a local mental health crisis and assessment center. The specialists at a crisis and assessment center will provide stabilization care and detox services and work with patients to find the right care setting. You can find a center by calling 988 or going to one of the locations below. If your condition includes serious medical concerns (injury, overdose/ingestion) please call 911 or seek treatment at the emergency department that is closest to you.
