Memphis Crisis Center

Our Story

Initially starting as the first 24-hour volunteer-powered hotline, known as the Suicide Prevention Service, it has evolved to address a broader spectrum of mental health and crisis issues. Despite facing challenges, including a closure in 2009, the center has remained a vital resource, offering help and hope to those in need.
