About this listen
In this epsiode I am joined by Jeremy Brown, Outreach Director for FirstLink. Based out of Fargo, ND FirstLink is a free, confidential service that offers listening and support, referrals to resources, and crisis intervention 24 hours a day.
Jeremy and I will be talking about 988, the National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline that was signed into law in 2020. We’ll discuss the importance of 988 within the larger scope of North Dakota’s Behavioral Health System and how FirstLink plays a critical role in its implementation. We also discuss some of the most common questions related to 988 including:
- What are examples of when I should call 988?
- Can you call the number if you speak another language?
- Is the number only for suicide crises?
- What is the difference between 211 and 988?
