“The shared experience of serving in the military usually makes relating easier with Veterans who may be in crisis.”

If you are a veteran in crisis or have a loved one that is but you’re not in the Joliet area, you can reach out to the Veterans Crisis Line.
The Veterans Crisis Line has qualified responders from the Department of Veterans Affairs and many of the people on this team are veterans.
To reach the Veterans Crisis Line, you can call 1-800-273-8255 and then press 1, you can text 838255, or you can also speak to someone online.
