We're excited to announce a major step forward in expanding access to crisis support for our community!

Genesee Health System will officially launch a brand-new, 24/7 Text Crisis Line.

This new service is powered by our trusted crisis line partner and branded as WeGotU — just text GHS to 934688 any time, day or night.

✅ New Number: Text GHS to 934688 (WeGotU)
✅ Available 24/7
✅ Fast, compassionate support for anyone in crisis
✅ Same high-quality care — just one more way we’re making help easier to reach

Important note: You can still text “Flint” to 741741 and receive immediate support. While 741741 connects users to a national crisis line, our new provider is specifically trained in GHS protocols and local resources — ensuring you receive support that’s not only immediate, but also informed by our community’s unique needs.

This enhancement is part of our broader strategy to make crisis services more responsive and accessible.
