Too nervous to call? Not in a position to talk without being overheard? Calling 9-8-8 isn’t the only way to ask for help. Whatever the reason, you can always text us. You’ll receive the same level of support, and our responders will communicate with you entirely by text.

We know asking for help can be difficult, so to make it less intimidating we wanted to show you what happens when you call 9-8-8. No one who reaches out to 9-8-8 will be turned away. Our responders will support you, whatever you are going through.
