Mental Health Resources and Support for Youth in Crisis
This link directs you to resources to help cope if you are experiencing crisis. If you or someone you know is considering suicide, please call 1-800-273-8255 (TALK) to speak with someone and get help.
The library - and the community at large - are here to help you find what you need. Use the phone numbers and websites on the left to find information outside the library. Use the image on the right to locate books and materials on topics inside the library. (The bookmark is available in print in our Teen Space). Need more?
