Accessible contact options

We want to ensure our crisis support is available to everyone. If you are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind, or have a speech disability, you can reach our support team using the California Relay Service (CRS).

Emergency note: California Relay Service is not for immediate emergencies. If you or someone you know is facing a life-threatening emergency, please dial 911 directly.

How to connect using 711

The easiest and fastest way to reach us via relay is to dial 711 from any telephone. You will be automatically connected to a trained Communications Assistant who will securely and confidentially relay your conversation to our staff.

  • Cost: This service is entirely free.

  • Privacy: All calls are strictly confidential. No records of your conversation are kept.
