Impact Story
Crisis Connections work is dedicated to reducing inequities and disparities with regard to behavioral health and basic resource access. We primarily serve BIPOC and low-income populations, and all of our services are 100% free with translation services available in more than 150 languages.
Crisis Connections is proud to have expanded our services to meet the changing needs of our community in recent years. In 2022 (the last year with full agency data available) Crisis Connections served a total of 406,736 people, received 668,229 calls, texts, and chats, made 339,235 referrals to services, and our public resource databases were used 125,004 times.
One recent caller described our impact saying "I called not knowing what to expect, but the compassion I received gave me strength to face my problems."
