Do you know the difference between 988 and 911? 988 is a number where you can receive emotional support, de-escalation if you are in crisis, and be connected to community resources. 911 should be used if there is an urgent threat to life or safety, if there is a medical emergency, or if a crime is on progress. When you know the difference between these two important phone numbers, you'll be able to get the help you need.

Are you wearing your green today? πŸ’š

On our wellness walk we wore green to show our support for Mental Health Awareness month. The Iowa Healthiest State Initiative works hard to end the stigma around mental illness. It's OK to talk about it and it's more than OK to seek help when you need it. EFR is here to help individuals manage life's challenges at work, at home, at school, and in the community.
