Important Update: Suicide Hotline Number Changing to 988


Effective July 16th, 2022, the national suicide hotline number will transition from an 11-digit number to a simplified 3-digit number: 988. This change is designed to make it easier for individuals in crisis to access help quickly.


When calling or texting 988, individuals will be connected to trained counselors who are part of the existing lifeline network, providing immediate support and resources.


This change is part of a nationwide effort to improve access to mental health services and ensure that anyone experiencing a crisis can get the help they need swiftly and efficiently.



Remember, if you or someone you know is in need of immediate assistance, dial 988 to connect with a trained counselor.
