What is 988? Learn about the mental health crisis line
Blog post from Bandwidth
Starting from July 16, 2022, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline in the United States can be accessed by dialing "988". This is a significant step towards making mental health resources more accessible and memorable. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline was established in 2005 to provide support services for individuals experiencing a mental health crisis, with over 20 million calls handled so far. The new 988 number will redirect to the existing Lifeline number (1-800-273-8255) and connect callers to the nearest crisis center based on their area code. All telecommunications carriers in the U.S. and its five major territories must implement 988 by July 16, 2022.
