ImHurting Crisis Chat is a portal to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline services offered through Volunteers of America Western Washington in the North Puget Sound and Salish regions. Visitors can use the Internet Chat, the SMS text (988) service, or call 988 to speak with a trained Crisis Counselor. Our mission is to help people by providing online emotional support during times of crisis. Everyone is welcome to talk about what’s causing them to feel pain. Our Crisis Counselors will listen to you without judgment and help you feel cared about and safe.
