 Lets decrease the stigma surrounding suicide and mental health issues

Suicide is a leading cause of death in the U.S., according to statistics gathered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Nearly 46,000 individuals died by suicide in the U.S. in 2020 and some 12.2 million American adults contemplated it.

 individuals experiencing mental health crises in the United States have had to call a 10-digit phone number to connect with someone who can help. Soon, they’ll be able to dial a much shorter code in times of crisis: 988.

 individuals will be able to call, text or online chat the number 988 to get in touch with trained counselors with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline network. Those experts are available to listen, offer support and share additional resources. More than 200 local crisis centers across the country make up the nationwide network, which has received more than 20 million calls since it launched 17 years ago. The existing suicide prevention number—1-800-273-8255—will remain active even after the new code takes effect.
