Washington’s crisis line for Native people is just 2 years old, but other states and countries have noticed its success
The Native & Strong Lifeline celebrated its second anniversary in November 2024. This crisis line is a unique subnetwork of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline that serves all Tribal-affiliated people in Washington. This includes American Indians, Alaska Natives, Urban Indians, First Nations, enrolled Tribal members, and unenrolled descendants.
This line provides support for people experiencing mental health crises, thoughts of suicide, substance use concerns, or any type of emotional distress. People supporting loved ones in crisis can also get support. This line is fully staffed by Tribal crisis counselors, who share their Tribal affiliation when answering a call.
