988 is NOT 911. You don't have to be in crisis to call...

Maybe you've been carrying something heavy for a while. Maybe you're worried about someone you love. Maybe you just need to talk it through with someone who gets it.

That's exactly what 988 is for.

Call or text 988 — free, confidential, and answered by someone right here in your community.

This one is for the people who are worried about someone else.

The parent who can't sleep because they don't know how their kid is really doing.
The friend who keeps checking in because something feels off.
The spouse who doesn't know what to say anymore.

You don't have to have the answers. You don't have to fix it.
988 is for you too — they can help you figure out what to say, what to do, and how to show up for someone you love.

Call or text 988. It's free, confidential, and available 24/7. 📞

Share this with someone who might need it. ❤️
