Do you know when to call 988 vs. 911?
It’s important to understand the difference:

📞 Call 988 for emotional support, a mental health crisis, or if you need help de-escalating a situation. Trained counselors provide compassionate care and connect you to local resources. Law enforcement is only involved when absolutely necessary.

🚨 Call 911 for immediate threats to life or safety—like medical emergencies, physical danger, or crimes in progress.

Knowing which number to call can save lives. 💙

“The Gen Z Stare” — What’s really behind it?

Our very own Ashley Wilkinson, Clinical Site Supervisor at Provident’s South County office, was interviewed on St. Louis Public Radio discussing how culture, trauma, and social media have shaped the way Gen Z communicates.

From misunderstood expressions to deeper emotional patterns, Ashley offers thoughtful insights on both the challenges and strengths of this unique generation.
