As we continue into September, we at NAMI Contra Costa continue to raise mental health awareness and suicide prevention. On Tuesday, September 10, NAMI is calling grassroots advocates to support the Local 988 Response Act, a major priority bill to improve the routing of people calling the 988 Lifeline for help during a crisis.
As September unfolds, we at NAMI Contra Costa are proud to be part of a critical initiative for mental health awareness and suicide prevention. On Sunday, September 8, NAMI CC and NAMI join the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in observing the inaugural 988 Day—a national effort to raise awareness about the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
