When someone is in a behavioral health crisis, the goal is not just “what do we do right now?” It is Right Help, Right Now, with options that meet people where they are.

A strong crisis continuum includes:
✓ Someone to talk to (988)
✓ Someone to respond (mobile crisis teams)
✓ A place to go (center-based crisis care)
This is how communities reduce unnecessary hospital stays, incarceration, and out-of-home placements while offering trauma-informed, recovery-oriented support. If you or someone you love needs support, call or text 988.

New Year brings New Beginnings! I am excited to announce that Max Willey will be assuming the role of president. Serving in this position over the past several years has been both an honor and a privilege, and I am confident that the affiliate will continue to thrive under his leadership.💚

I take pride in NAMI Coastal’s ongoing impact within our community and remain deeply appreciative of the support it provided my family during challenging times.💚

This transition is not a goodbye-- I will continue to serve on the board and as Youth and Young Adult Outreach Coordinator. 💚

With gratitude, Susannah Uroskie
