Getting individuals in crisis connected to the care they need quickly is paramount. A fast connection to specially trained staff who can help to de-escalate, provide over-the phone assessment, assist law enforcement and other agencies and connect callers with community resources or referrals can mean the difference between life and death. That’s why the Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Division has a 24/7 crisis line available for individuals to call during such a situation.
In a mental health crisis, call 414-257-7222
