The Health Departments of the Lower Cape offer a FREE mental health and well-being platform, CredibleMind, to help residents find trusted resources and self-help before a crisis. Here is the CredibleMind link, and what this service provides: 

• Trusted, evidence-based content: Peer-reviewed articles and expert-rated resources updated regularly.
• Confidential self-assessments: Learn about personal well-being and track progress over time.
• Local connections: Simple pathways to town and regional services and supports.
• Community insights (anonymous): Aggregated trends help public agencies tailor prevention and early-intervention efforts.
• Translations in Portuguese, Spanish and Haitian Creole expand access for Cape residents.
• Important: CredibleMind is for education and self-help and is not a crisis service. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger or experiencing a mental-health emergency, call 911. For urgent emotional support, call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
