Kristin Brooks Hope Center is a public benefit corporation whose focus and mission is suicide prevention and depression awareness education. One of KBHC’s direct services is the National Hopeline Network 1.800.SUICIDE (784-2433). This Network connects callers – people who are depressed or suicidal, or those who are concerned about someone else – automatically to an American Association of Suicidology (AAS) or CONTACT USA certified crisis center nearest to where the call is placed. It brings the tremendous knowledge, skill and resources of existing crisis centers under the safety net of a single, easy-to-remember, toll-free telephone number. KBHC, through the National Hopeline Network, makes appropriate, critical services available to all. For a list of crisis centers nearest your location, check CRISYS — Crisis Response Information System. This data base provides the name, address, telephone numbers, and other information identifying whether a crisis center is AAS or CONTACT USA certified or a member of the National Hopeline Network.
