Community Warmline  (410) 768-5522

The "Community Warmline" can receive calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Non-emergency calls are handled by staff and will provide the caller with information, support and referrals. The Crisis Response System Staff intervene with callers who are experiencing a mental health and/or substance use disorder emergency. Also, the Crisis Response System "Community Warmline" coordinates calls with the police, fire and community agencies that are requesting information on crisis matters.

To address the increasing number of calls to the warmline, Anne Arundel County is using federal funds from the CARES Act to launch the COVID Recovery and Grief Support Program. This program will provide additional funding to expand mental health and grief counseling services for survivors and families who have suffered devastating loss from COVID. If you are in need of emotional support, please contact the warmline at 410-768-5522.
