This is designed to be a memorable and quick number that connects people who are suicidal or in any other mental health crisis to a trained mental health professional. The 988 toll-free lifeline available to anyone, will connect people to the existing network of more than 200 local crisis call centers around the country 24/7, to receive immediate counseling and local mental health referrals.  The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline's 10-digit number — 1-800-273-8255 — will remain active, but calls will be routed to 988.  The Lifeline supports people who call for themselves or someone they care about https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/help-someone-else/
