24-Hour Crisis Hotline: (716) 834-3131

Crisis Services is a 24-hour comprehensive crisis center and community resource whose first responders support anyone in need. They save lives by restoring safety, promoting emotional strength, and reducing the impact of trauma through intervention, education, prevention, and community collaboration. It offers a Mobile Outreach Program, a mobile unit of Erie County Medical Center’s Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency Program (CPEP). This program provides community-based mental health intervention to individuals in Erie County who are experiencing a mental health crisis. The main goal of the program is to divert individuals from unnecessary presentations at local psychiatric emergency rooms and to provide these individuals with the services they need to remain safely in the community. The Mobile Outreach Program receives referrals from other community mental health agencies, family members, police, friends, neighbors, landlords, or anybody else concerned about the welfare of an individual who appears to be experiencing a mental health crisis. Their 24-hour Crisis Hotline remains fully operational. You can call (716) 834-3131. If you are in immediate danger, please call 911.
