Description

Over 10 million calls have been answered since the launch of 988 – Crisis and Access Line. We have seen a 2 million increase year over year. This is a trend we are expecting to continue. At the same time, we are seeing shortages of Mental Health professionals. How can we foster and harness the entrepreneurial ecosystem to help those calling gain access to the needed services and also address growing mental health labor shortages.
