Crisis Services
Dial 911 :
If there is an urgent concern about someone in a physical or mental health crisis that needs immediate medical attention.
24-Hour Crisis Line: 866-4CRISIS (1-866-427-4747) or 206-461-3222
24-Hour Crisis Line provides immediate help to individuals, families and friends of people in emotional crisis. They can help you determine if you or your loved one needs professional consultation and they can link you to the appropriate services. They also provide immediate language interpretation in more than 155 languages.
Crisis Text Line serves anyone, in any type of crisis, providing access to free, 24/7 support and information via a medium people already use and trust. A live, trained Crisis Counselor receives the text and responds, all from a secure online platform. The volunteer Crisis Counselor will help you move from a hot moment to a cool moment.
The Lifeline provides 24/7, free and confidential support for people in distress, prevention and crisis resources for you or your loved ones, and best practices for professionals.
Teen Link Help Line: 1-866-TEENLINK (833-6546)
Teen Link is a confidential, anonymous and non-judgmental telephone help line answered by teens each evening from 6pm to 10pm. No issue is too big or too small. Phone workers also have access to an extensive database and can give you information on agencies serving youth in the King County area.

Teen Link Chat: www.866teenlink.org
Much like the line, teens can use Teen Link Chat to seek support for our teen volunteers on a variety of issues, including bullying, drug and alcohol concerns, relationships, stress, and other teen issues. Teen Link accepts chats from 6-9:30PM every day of the week. Teen Link Chat does not work well on cell phones, so they ask that you log on with a computer to chat with them.
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Disaster Distress Helpline: 1-800-985-5990
This 24/7/365 service from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration provides crisis counseling for people going through both natural and human-caused disasters. It’s free, multi-lingual and confidential. You can text TalkWithUs to 66746.
Trans Lifeline is a grassroots hotline offering direct emotional and financial support to trans people in crisis - for the trans community, by the trans community. The Hotline was, and still is, the only service in the country in which all operators are transgender. Because of the particularly vulnerable relationship transgender people have with police, it is also the only service in the country with a policy against non-consensual active rescue.
