Resources & Support When You Need It Most

At LAMCO Wellness, we believe that access to immediate emotional support is a critical component of overall well-being. We are proud to connect our community with the following best-in-class national resources, available 24/7 at no cost. Help is always just a call, text, or click away, whether depressed, thinking of suicide, feeling anxious after a disaster, or in need of emotional support for any other reason. Help is available anytime, anywhere, thanks to LAMCO Wellness.

We continue to develop and find new, innovative ways to help provide support and resources when people feel most alone.
