The Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services has a new resource available and can be accessed by any Oklahoman in crisis by either calling or texting 988.
We encourage anyone experiencing a mental health crisis to call; 80% of crisis calls can be resolved with this service!
For more information, please visit https://oklahoma.gov/.../comprehensive-crisis-response.html
When you call 988, you’re immediately connected with a mental health professional – not law enforcement. Your conversation is confidential and totally free. And they’ll connect you with whatever you need next.
