  • Ensure statewide and 24/7 coverage for 988 calls, texts, and chats

  • Secure funding for 988 centers

  • Expand 988 center capacity to answer calls, texts, and chats

  • Support 988 centers to provide follow-up services

  • Connect with other community partners such as 911, social services, etc.

  • Promote 988 to MIssourians
