Who to Call for Help
A working directory of crisis lines, legal aid, and victim services — national, statewide, and county-level — for the people we serve and the people supporting them.
This directory is maintained as a reference, not a referral. Investigative services are provided under the Frazier Forensics license; Six Echoes LLC is available for subcontract work.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
This directory is for crisis support, referrals, and ongoing help — not a substitute for emergency services. Save the numbers you might need before you need them.
Verified August 17, 2026. National lines, Washington statewide, and Pierce, King, and Thurston county direct-service agencies were checked against authoritative sources. Unverified entries are held in the "Not Yet Verified" tier with no published contact details. Re-verified on a six-month cadence.

A note on this directory
This directory is maintained as a reference, not a referral. Listings do not imply endorsement, and services change — especially small, local programs. Verified entries were last checked against authoritative sources on August 17, 2026; we re-verify on a six-month cadence and keep the verification date visible. Entries under "Not Yet Verified" have no published contact details until re-confirmed from the organization's own site. If you find a broken link or a closed program, it helps us to know.
