Free, confidential HelpLine
The first, and often, the hardest step is reaching out for help
SAMHIN offers a free, confidential HelpLine for individuals and families seeking mental health information, support and guidance.
Reaching out for help is often the first — and sometimes the hardest — step. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health concerns, or if you simply want more information, SAMHIN is here to help.
When you call the SAMHIN HelpLine, you will speak with a trained staff member or mental health clinician who can provide:
- Support and guidance
- Mental health information and education
- Assistance with navigating the mental health system
- Referrals to culturally competent mental health clinicians and local resources, when available
Call the SAMHIN HelpLine
Non-Emergency HelpLine: 888-581-3230
10:00 AM – 7:00 PM ET daily
You can also contact us at info@samhin.org. If you would like a return phone call, please include your phone number in the email.
Remember, you are not alone.
SAMHIN’s HelpLine is not a crisis hotline. SAMHIN does not provide treatment services. The information, support, guidance, and referrals offered through the HelpLine should not be considered medical or mental health treatment.
For mental health crisis call, text or chat 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. The 988 Lifeline is free and confidential, and provides compassionate, judgment-free support 24 hours a day. Speaking with someone can make a difference and may help save a life.
