Behavioral Health

If you or a loved one are in crisis, it’s important to seek help right away. In an emergency, please call 911 or come to the nearest Emergency Department (ED). Though the thought of going to the ED might be overwhelming, it’s the best way to keep you safe, and get immediate help. Visiting the ED can connect you with resources that will help you manage and overcome these issues
