Disaster Distress Helpline

Stress, anxiety, feelings of helplessness, and other depression-like symptoms are common reactions to a disaster. The Disaster Distress Helpline provides 24/7 crisis counseling and support for these challenges. Its specially trained counselors can provide support in many languages. The service is confidential, and you do not need to identify who you are.

The helpline is a service provided by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. In addition to calling, you can connect with a helpline crisis counselor by texting TalkWithUs to 66746.
