988 Call, Text & Chat

In times of mental health challenges or distress, immediate, empathetic support is just a call, text, or click away through  988 or by visiting 988lifeline.org. Both nationally and within our local community, EveryMind stands at the ready as a vital connector to this support network. Acting as a local call center and a national backup for 988 chat and text services, we ensure that individuals seeking help—whether for themselves or someone they are supporting—receive the compassionate assistance they need, anytime and anywhere in the United States, accessible via landline, mobile phone, or Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).

Anxiety, depression, and substance use are on the rise, making the presence of a dependable, cost-free support line more critical than ever. The statistics speak volumes: approximately 98% of contacts to the 988 Lifeline find the immediate crisis support they need, without the immediate necessity for further services.

EveryMind’s role in the 988 Lifeline network is a key part of a broader, national effort to revolutionize crisis care. Together with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA),  and through strategic federal, state, local, and community partnerships, we are committed to a future where everyone has: Someone to talk to. Someone to respond. A safe place for help.
