This week, Melissa Memorial Hospital welcomed the 988 Colorado Mental Health Line team to begin an important conversation about expanding awareness of mental health resources in our community.
The 988 line is a simple, easy-to-remember number that connects individuals to free, confidential support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whether someone is experiencing stress, emotional distress, a mental health concern, or simply needs someone to talk to, trained specialists are available to listen and help.
Increasing awareness of 988 is a meaningful step in ensuring that support is accessible when it is needed most. No one has to navigate challenges alone.
If you or someone you know needs support, call or text 988.
If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a medical emergency, call 911.
