What is the 988 crisis line?
It’s a number available 24/7 that provides free and confidential support for people in distress and prevention and crisis resources for you or your loved ones. It can be reached via a phone call or text message to help reach people in the most effective ways possible.
The crisis line is so important, in fact, that a member of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services recently joined The Wrap podcast to discuss it and how you can help it become as impactful as possible.
