Americans can now call 988, instead of 911, to talk to mental health counselors/providers if they are experiencing a mental health crisis. Callers will be connected to trained counselors – not clinicians – who can offer free emotional support. https://t.co/MbvUJtUsxQ

[MetroWest Regional Coalition 4 Suicide Prevention @mwrcsp]

988 is a direct connection to compassionate, accessible care & support for anyone experiencing mental health-related distress– whether thoughts of suicide, mental health or substance use crisis or other emotional distress. People can dial 988 if they're worried about a loved one.
