Everyone defines crisis differently.
But no crisis defines you.
At Common Ground, your crisis doesn’t need to meet any criteria. We’re here to help with any mental health emergency — reminding people that they are never alone. There is always hope.
Common Ground services are here for you in any crisis. When you don’t know where to turn, find us at 1‑800‑231‑1127.
