Healthy Mind Matters: 9-8-8 Day and men's mental health

When you or a loved one experiences a mental health crisis, do you know what to do? Or where to go to get resources and support? It's September 8th, also known as 9-8-8 Day. It's a day set aside to recognize the importance of the free, confidential crisis support line at 9-8-8. In this deep-dive, Inside Sources is joined by experts from the Huntsman Mental Health Institute to talk about mental health. Rebecca Hyde, Community Crisis and Intervention Support Services Director, explains how the 9-8-8 line works and what other resources may be available to help those in need. Then, the conversation goes more narrow: men's mental health. What specific challenges do men face with their mental health, and what kinds of specific resources are available to help? Licensed Clinical Social Worker at Huntsman Mental Health Institute Dale Werner shares his expert takes. Today, knowing about 988 is one way you can make a difference. Supporting the future of mental health is another.
