“The mission of the Mental Health Division is to promote recovery and safety.”
Disaster Outreach Services
offers emotional support to residents during and following declared
disasters in Washington State. The service is activated when counties
find the need for emotional support is greater than their ability to
meet the need. When activated, Disaster Outreach Services operates a
toll-free telephone line for Washington State residents to access trained
outreach workers who can provide support, as well as education, information
and referral to resources to assist with recovery efforts. Disaster
Outreach Services is currently inactive. |
