Military Crisis Line
Perhaps the most important resource, the Military/Veteran Crisis Line was developed for veterans and other service members who require immediate assistance and counselling. The moment you call, a trained responder will answer and is available to chat about whatever your issue may be. After your support chat, your responder will also put you in touch with local resources to continue care. This crisis line is available for active duty servicemembers, veterans and their families 24/7 for all different emergencies. You can call at 1-800-263-8255, and press Option 1.
