Communities
We have removed the criteria for communities to link back to us in favor of accessibility for our participants. Communities that are not nonprofits are reviewed case by case by our board. For those that are for-profit such as private practices that provide valuable mental health resources, we highly recommend Sponsorship!

 

Crisis Support
Resources that are not Filipino/a/x specific. If you know of any Filipino/a/x specific crisis support, please contribute to our resources. Please also let us know if you have any negative experiences.
