aToro Thought: 988
PSA: In case you didn’t receive a notice or weren’t aware of the change...the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) made a change to the call-in number in July, changing a ten-digit number to a three-digit number for calls and crisis.

?This post is in respect of those I’ve lost and in hope of those it may help. Everyone stay well and know you are loved.
