Vibrant Emotional Health has been the power behind the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline since its inception. After transitioning to a nationwide three-digit dialing code in 2022, more than 10 million calls, texts, and chats from individuals seeking help with suicide, mental health, and substance use-related challenges have been answered. However, 33% of Americans still don't know about it. You can help us change that! Spread the word: help is just a call, text, or chat away—24/7, 365.

Associate Vice President, Network Operations at Vibrant Emotional Health | 988 National Administration | Trust, Relationships, Improved Outcomes.
Today marks the first-ever #988Day! In 2016, before 988 came to be, my father, Steve Kaspar, created The Kaspar Project, an initiative that raised awareness for suicide prevention and anti-cyber bullying through the power of music. Steve was a life-long musician and artist, and he used his artistry and talent to make powerful messages of support and awareness. He wrote and produced “I’d give anything,” a story about what happens after suicide. I’m sharing his work in support of #988Day, but also want to recognize how powerful it is to share the same message through different voices. Music, art, culture, and community all meet people where they are - and that is the essence of what 988 is… meeting people where they are. Raise awareness, celebrate, and tell someone about 988. “I’d Give Anything” on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/gvd2n39b Consider sharing this post to help spread awareness, and visit samhsa.gov/988Day for more resources. #988Lifeline #mentalhealth #988Day #988 #suicidepreventionmonth

September is National Suicide Prevention Month. We hosted Grant Riewe, CTO of Vibrant Emotional Health, administrator of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, to discuss the increase in the number of people calling 988. One of the hardest steps is asking for help. Vibrant's mission is ensuring people across the country have a path to finding care. Grant discusses how the increase in calls is due to a greater awareness of 988 and people across the country finding the care they needed all along. As Vibrant's partner in this mission, we at Mosaicx ask you to please help spread the word about 988. Every call, text, chat and video conversation represents a life that may have been saved thanks to this amazing service. #SuicidePreventionMonth #SPM24 #NSSP #BeThe1To #988Day #SuicidePrevention #Mosaicx #NoHoldTime

Today marks the inaugural 988 Day. We are proud to partner with 10 of our peers across the industry to bring awareness to the 988 Lifeline through Signs of HOPE. Signs have been installed in parking fields at 1,600 centers across the country reaching more than 272M visitors and totaling 4.6B visits annually. These signs provide information on how to access the 988 Lifeline, a national network of over 215 local crisis centers that provide 24/7 emotional support via phone, text, and chat. We strive to be the center of the communities we serve, and we could not think of a higher use for our shopping centers than elevating awareness of this life-saving resource to those who frequently visit our centers for their daily convenience needs. If you’d like to join us, reach out to [email protected] for an implementation kit. #SignsofHOPE #988Lifeline #MentalHealth #988Day Continental Realty Corporation Kimco Realty Corporation Kite Realty Group Peterson Companies Phillips Edison & Company Regency Centers ShopCore Properties ShopOne Centers REIT Sterling Organization Urban Edge Properties
