In recognition of Mental Health Month, the HCMA is working to raise awareness of trauma and the impact it can have on the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of children, families, and communities. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through older adulthood.

SAMHSA’s National Helpline,  1-800-662-HELP (4357)  (also known as the Treatment Referral Routing Service), or TTY:  1-800-487-4889  is a confidential, free, 24-hour-a-day, 365-day-a-year, information service, in English and Spanish, for individuals and family members facing mental and/or substance use disorders. This service provides referrals to local treatment facilities, support groups, and community-based organizations.
