The New Mexico Health Care Authority has announced that a new lifeline, 988, will be available 24/7 during the holidays for those in need of support. This lifeline is meant to provide immediate assistance to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. The goal is to ensure that help is readily available during a time when many people may be feeling overwhelmed or struggling with their mental health.
This new lifeline comes at a crucial time, as the holidays can be a particularly difficult period for many individuals. The 988 lifeline will be staffed with trained professionals who can offer support, guidance, and resources to those in need. It is important for people to know that they are not alone and that help is just a phone call away.
The New Mexico Health Care Authority is urging individuals to reach out if they are in need of help, especially during the holiday season. By providing this lifeline, they hope to make it easier for people to access the support they need to stay safe and well during this challenging time.
