Find Support: Contact Crisis Services

Most of us go through life solving our day-to-day problems without needing help to cope with our feelings. But a severe illness, an accident or an emotional crisis can overwhelm us, at least temporarily, and suddenly we need help. In this section, you will find resources and tips on getting help when you need it most.

Contact our CRISIS SERVICES at 705-728-5044 (local) or 1-888-893-8333 (toll free) (TTY services available)
