Crisis Resources

When someone is struggling, knowing where to turn can make all the difference. In moments of crisis—whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, or simply need a compassionate voice—help should never feel out of reach. Across Toronto and the surrounding regions, a wide network of crisis lines, mobile response teams, and specialized support services are available day and night to ensure no one has to face difficult moments alone.

This guide brings together essential contact information for distress lines, mobile crisis units, community-based responders, and dedicated supports for youth, seniors, women, Indigenous communities, 2SLGBTQ+ individuals, newcomers, and more. Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or supporting someone else, these resources offer immediate, confidential, and culturally responsive care when it matters most.

Because reaching out is a sign of strength — and help is here whenever you need it.
