Depression affects up to 26% of adults with Autism. The implementation of the 988 National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, a three-digit number dedicated to mental health crisis care, will help provide solutions to some of the problematic crisis response protocols our system currently has in place. On July 16, 2022, the 988 lifeline will accept calls and texts from anyone who needs support for a suicidal, mental health, and/or substance use crisis. |
