Delaware is a vibrant state, known for its charming coastal landscapes and rich history, but its community faces struggles beneath the surface. In February 2021, 32.8% of adults in Delaware reported symptoms of anxiety or depression, and 16.9% were unable to get the counseling or therapy they needed.
Behind these statistics are people like you, facing difficulties no one should have to face alone. Everyone deserves support, so we have gathered free, confidential mental health and crisis services available across Delaware.
Do not hesitate to reach out, for yourself or for a loved one. If you are not sure where to start, you can call the Mental Health Hotline at 866-903-3787.
