24/7 Emotional Support Line
Are you currently experiencing a crisis? If you are a Lone Star College student and in need of urgent help, call the 24/7 Emotional Support Line at 844.844.4007 where a trained crisis worker is available to talk 24/7 and can provide general information on mental health and treatment referral.
This service is available through partnership with Communities in Schools (CIS) of Houston, Harris Health and Lone Star College.
You may also reach Communities in Schools professionals on campus and in-person by visiting LSC-University Park Building 12, Suite 232.
