If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, there’s no judgment—just help when you dial 988.
In 2023, we took a significant step by joining the national 988 hotline, becoming the exclusive regional service for Marion and Polk counties. This ensures that local, tailored support is available to meet your needs. The hotline served as a lifeline for over 30,000 calls last year, including 2,000 suicide interventions, as we guided individuals and families through life’s most challenging moments.
