988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline—Older Adults Survey
Introduction
The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is a national resource that connects people of all ages who are experiencing mental distress with support. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (formerly known as the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline) offers 24/7 call, text, and chat access to trained crisis counselors who can help people experiencing suicidal thoughts, substance use, mental health crises, and any other kind of emotional distress. People can also dial the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline if they are worried about a friend, family member, or loved one who may need crisis support.
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) has partnered with Public Sector Consultants, a Lansing-based research firm, to gather input on the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline from adults aged 60 and older. Our goal is to hear your experiences, recommendations, and concerns to ensure that Michigan’s 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline call centers are prepared to better support older adults. It is especially important to MDHHS that the diverse experiences of Michigan’s older adults are carefully considered and incorporated into Michigan’s 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline outreach and education efforts. Your time, experience, feedback, and perspectives are valued and appreciated.
Discussing and reliving mental and behavioral health crises is challenging. If during or after taking the survey you feel in need of support, please call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988 to receive anonymous support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This service is free to everyone and will still be accessible if you choose not to participate in the survey.
Please know that anything you share in the survey will remain anonymous and will be combined with answers from other individuals taking the survey, so individual respondents cannot be identified.
Thank you for your time—your input ensures the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is a more connected, capable, and useful resource for people in our communities.
