CommUnity Crisis Services

Story

Update 2/1/23: Our first line with CauseTeam raised more than $2,500 to support the work of CommUnity's Crisis Helpline Services. 
We are so excited to launch our "Start a Conversation" line of tees and hoodies!

CommUnity Crisis Services exists to serve those in need. We offer low-barrier services to help our neighbors not just survive, but thrive. These services include Food Bank and Financial Support, Crisis Helpline Services, and Mobile Crisis Response. 

CommUnity was founded as the state of Iowa's first crisis center and 50 years later, continues to blaze trails for mental health and suicide prevention services. Earlier this year, CommUnity became Iowa's primary answerer for texts and chats to the new 9-8-8 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. In addition, we're part of a network of more than 200 independent crisis centers that answer calls, chats, and texts from around the U.S. We're proud to be leaders in this important step forward for access to mental healthcare.

By supporting this fundraiser, you're branding yourself as an advocate, as a safe space, as a friend to all those who suffer in silence. Thank you for helping us spread the word about 988 and for joining our community.
