Help 24/7
These apps are for community members to use when they need immediate mental health assistance or have a drug/alcohol abuse concern for themselves or a friend. Adults can also use the service to report concerns.
Anonymous
Calls are routed through a cloaking server, so that texters are completely anonymous and teens
have the freedom to reach out for help without fear. In the case of a life-threatening condition, emergency responders will be notified and be given as much information as is available to help the person in need.
Trained Counselors
Users receive an immediate text response from a licensed/certified mental health professional.
