The Mental Health Hotline offers support and resources. It is not a substitute for emergency services.
Do you know where to turn for mental health help in Kansas? Every county in the state is covered by a community mental health center that answers calls around the clock, and several statewide and national services can point you toward care.
People everywhere need help with their mental health from time to time, and Kansas is no exception. An estimated 6.1% of Kansas adults live with a serious mental health condition, and fewer than half of them have received treatment in the past year. Mental health struggles also often run alongside substance use, which affects people from every walk of life.
If you are dealing with either, or both, you do not have to work through it alone. Reaching out to one of the Kansas services below is a reasonable first step — whether you are going through a hard stretch, need a diagnosis and treatment, or are worried about someone you love.
