Mental Health Mobile Crisis Response Services

Offers immediate emotional support by a trained counselor to help with problems such as depression, panic, anxiety, delusions, or other mood or behavior disorders. Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and serves all ages.

Description

Mobile crisis response services provide short-term, intensive mental health services to children or adults during a mental health emergency. Crisis teams of mental health professionals and mental health practitioners provide services in people's homes or other sites outside the usual clinic setting. They respond quickly to the emergency, assess and resolve crises, and link people to needed services.

Mobile crisis services are available 24/7.

Every county in Minnesota has a mental health crisis response telephone number:

• Children's Mental Health Crisis Response Phone Numbers
• Adult Mental Health Crisis Response Phone Numbers

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available by calling or texting the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or visiting their website at 988lifeline.org.
