Mental Health Resources

Making the decision to seek mental health support can be a difficult and life-saving one. The CARE Program wants to help identify and address barriers that may prevent families from accessing the care they need. The mental health resources listed below can be a great place to start when considering options.

​

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, dial 9-1-1 for immediate assistance.

9-8-8

988 has been designated as the new three-digit dialing code that will route callers to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now known as the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), and is now active across the United States. When people call, text, or chat 988, they will be connected to trained counselors that are part of the existing Lifeline network. These trained counselors will listen, understand how their problems are affecting them, provide support, and connect them to resources if necessary.
