Description

Starting this week, San Diegans experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis, including thoughts of suicide, will be able to call or text 988 to get help for themselves or a loved one. On Saturday, the 988 number will connect to a trained counselor who can help them and connect them to services in the area where they live. This new service is in addition to San Diego County's Access and Crisis Line at (888) 724-7240.
