THUNDER BAY —The Canadian Mental Health Association's Thunder Bay centre has launched a new text and chat option to its Crisis Response 24/7 phone line that serves Northwestern Ontario.By texting 807-346-8282, the 24/7 line is immediately available for calls, texts, and/or a chat box at thunderbay.cmha.ca.
"This is another important step in our efforts to create a mental health crisis system that better responds to the needs of our community by providing mental health to all," Hyslop said. "This will make an incredible difference for engaging young people in the right support at the right time during their most vulnerable moments," Hyslop stated.
But she said if the crisis response worker feels at any time that someone is in danger, "we can immediately guide the text to an actual phone call or to additional resources, and a response that will ensure everyone's safety."
