988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
National three-digit phone number for all mental health, substance use and suicide crises. All calls are answered in the state that calls originate from. 988 will offer rapid access to behavioral health support through connection with trained crisis specialists. The trained specialists will provide assessment, stabilization, referrals and follow up for individuals at high risk for suicide and/or poor mental health outcomes. If a higher level of care is needed, the specialist will work with the caller and other supports to connect them to a mobile crisis response team to respond to the person in the community.
