The Maryland Department of Health recently launched 988, the new national suicide and crisis lifeline. Contacting 988 provides a direct connection for anyone needing support for mental health or substance use (problems with drugs and alcohol), having thoughts of suicide, or being worried about someone who may need crisis support.
MDH created a toolkit that provides your organization with free downloadable and printable outreach materials:
- Wallet cards
- Digital ads (English and Spanish)
- Posters
- Audio spots (English and Spanish)
- Flyer on 988 in Maryland
We strongly encourage you to use, share and promote these materials with your audiences and networks in order to ensure a clear understanding of 988, how it works and the services provided.

Language and materials for this promotion were provided by the Maryland Department of Health.
