Colors have been routed to a Crisis Center where counselors answer calls. 2. 2 million calls were taken last year. Federal relators hope this short hotline number will make it easier for people to seek help. I believe 988 would help. It has an echo of 911, a number we all know. This research should make difference when they need a lifeline. This new number will be expected to be ready for use in the year 2021. For more, were joined here by the executive director of Crisis Support servitors of Alameda County. Thank you so much for being here. How do you think this would affect Suicide Prevention efforts in the future .

I think young people will learn about 911 from Elementary School age and hopefully, this new number will make it possible for us to be having these conversations about Mental Health and Suicide Prevention starting early and maybe people wont have as much of a hesitation about reaching out. Certainly simplifies the process as well. It is a three digit number that i need to remember if myself for a Family Member is in the Mental Health crisis. Definitely. I think there are some estimates from the national Suicide Prevention lifeline that they say in this new three digit number, the number of calls coming in annually would be at 12 million calls. Lets talk a little bit more about the numbers. Because they are startling. It is estimated that more than 47,000 americans died by suicide and more than 1. 4 million adults attempted suicide. This was in 2017. Can you tell us a little bit on what youre seeing there in Alameda County . Were definitely noticing some changes here locally as well. Two years ago, the number of lifecycles that weve had was under 7000. Last year, it was over 10,000. That is a pretty big jump for us. That doesnt take into account over 40,000 local folks calling in addition to the lifeline. Today, i was also looking at the severity of these goals. The degree of severity of course have also increased. Pretty significantly, primarily , less than 10 of vehicles would be considered severe. Now, that number has been up in the last couple of years. We are definitely feeling the stress that both are feeling and the increase in suicidal thinking. Those are in fact some startling numbers your sharing with us tonight. Talking about how important these goals are. What is the Research Show about a persons interaction with someone in a Crisis Center . One of the i mary protective factors against suicide is really connection. Thats what Crisis Centers offers. Crisis centers offer a positive connection, 24 7, regardless of high isolated or upset or lonely somebody is feeling in their own lives. One of the things that make it special is the fact that we have so many volunteers on site. We have about 200 volunteers here in Alameda County answering these goals. It is really the sense of neighbors caring about neighbors and that number of connection really impacts people. We know that even in a 10 minute call, the degree of the stress that simply maybe expensing decreases significantly after they have felt that somebody was truly seeing their pain and hearing them out. Once they hung up, there a little bit more helpful. Thank you so much for talking investigating. This new three digit number is set to be unveiled. Thank you so much.

The Supreme Court is siding with the city of berkeley in a legal battle with the cell phone industry. The high court voted this week to ly City Ordinance and warning students stand. Three years ago, berkeley approved an ordinance requiring cell phone retailers to issue warnings about the possible exposure to radiation from cell phone use. Cell phone Companies Argue that the ordinance violated their freespeech rights by requiring them to deliver a message they disagree with. Supreme court rejected their challenge. Joining us now on phone is the mayor of berkeley, mr. Mayor, we appreciate you coming on today. How significant is this ruling by the Supreme Court, do you think . It is significant not just for berkeleys ordinance but also nationwide and the information that we are requiring cell phone retails to provide is the same information the fcc over the mandates that cell phones include. So, we werent requiring any Additional Information beyond the fcc disclosures. It is important that people know how to properly use the device. That is the purpose, to provide information so people can use the device safely. The wireless association, they challenge the audience in berkeley, they pointed a fact that the fcc, at this point, is no Scientific Evidence establishing a causal link between cell phone use and cancer or other negative health problems. What do you say in response to that and all the warnings being posted in berkeley misleading at all . I dont believe them misleading. These are disclosures that the federal government already requires that Cell Phone Companies must include. The information is with the content neutral around the Health Effects of technology on individuals and merely just providing information about how people can safely use their device. We do know that there is some degree of radiation when you come to use your device, this is just basic information every consumer should have. How concerned do you think the average person should be about the Health Effect of using their cell phones or having those wells close to their bodies . Every time you have a device emitting radiation, there is some inherent risk. That is the reason why the federal government over the mandates this information be provided to consumers, not only upon purchase but also in the phone itself. If you actually search through your phone under settings, see the disclosures there. Let me ask you, because you know in San Francisco, the cell phone industry, they were successful in challenging an ordinance there that would have required something that sounds similar, retailers do kind of handout a fact sheet labeling so that missions as a possible carcinogen and that was successfully shot down. It seems similar to what youre doing in berkeley but a busy, there must be a distinction. What the thing your warning was allowed to stand by the courts. . The difference between San Franciscos warnings and berkeleys warnings is they have adapted language that is far more extensive than what fcc mandates. It did make actual value statements about the impact of cell phone use on health. And, they were able to strike down the state as. What we elected to do was just ensure that the information is already mandated by the federal government, we provided much more transparently to customers when they purchase the devices at the actual science never required to be posted on the stores, to reflect the fcc mandated disclosures. We i think, took a safer path by aligning our state its with those that are already provided. I want to commend our outside counsel who did and its credible job on my this is important and preserving local rights to protect safety. To wrap up, lets talk about the brother implications of this really but the high court. Do you believe that this is going to open the door for other cities out there, other states across the country to require cell phone retailers to post these Similar Health warnings . I hope so. I think that consumers had the right to know and this information is already buried in your phone. By requiring this information to be provided in a more transparent fashion, people can make their own decisions about how to use their devices safely and, i think people have the right to know this information. That was the mayor of berkeley. We always appreciate your time. Thank you, mr. Mayor. Thank you so much. Foggy, foggy friday. Scattered showers continue to fall tonight.
