Mental Health Services
Suicide Prevention
In 2020, the United State Congress funded a nationwide mental health crisis “lifeline,” (hotline) at 988. Managed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline number is a 24-hour hotline for people in a mental health or substance abuse crisis.
The Kansas Attorney General’s office has brought to Kansas the “Kansas – A Friend AsKS” cell phone app that contains many valuable suicide prevention resources. The app was launched in 2022 in Kansas, and is available in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
