Making Decisions About Calling 988 Versus 911: Understanding End-User Views Before the Launch of 988

CONCLUSIONS: The broad expectations for 988 suggest that the line must be flexible and responsive to a range of needs and that communities should clearly define what is available through 988. More implementation research is needed to ensure a detailed understanding of those whom 988 is serving, how the line meets callers' needs, and the line's potential for connecting people to needed services.PMID:38410036 | DOI:10.1176/appi.ps.20230016
