Subject: Help spread awareness for the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
Dear [name],
988 is way forward. It’s someone who gets you and gives you the nonjudgmental support you need. It’s whatever you need, when you need it.
988 offers a direct connection to compassionate, accessible care and support for anyone experiencing mental health-related distress, whether that is thoughts of suicide, mental health or substance use crisis, or any other kind of emotional distress.
To help spread awareness of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration has created a suite of materials. Assets can be accessed here.
If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health-related or substance use crisis, hope and help is available. Please call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and speak with a trained crisis specialist 24/7.
Thank you!
