Outreach is Not a Crisis Center
Outreach is not a crisis center and office phones are managed Monday through Thursday from 8:00am to 3:00pm, and Friday 8:00am to 12:00pm. We respond to emails and phone calls during normal business hours. Calling your local police department at 9-1-1 is always an option if you or someone you know is experiencing a physical or mental health emergency.
