Dial 988 to Connect with a Counselor
September is Suicide Prevention Month, a time to prioritize mental health and support those who may be struggling. Let's break the stigma and create a world where everyone feels safe and valued. If you or someone you know is in an emergency, DIAL 988 to contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline or call 911 immediately.
Within the membership of the Cook County Farm Bureau, we have seen some members struggle with mental health related issues. We want to make sure that our members know that the 988 number is a quick access lifeline. Members can talk to a professionally trained counselor and find other resources in the local community to provide potential relief and support.
