How mental health care works in Georgia
If you're in crisis right now — or someone you love is — call or text 988, or call the Georgia Crisis & Access Line at 1-800-715-4225. Real people answer 24/7, they can talk you through tonight, and they can send a mobile crisis team instead of police in many situations.
For ongoing counseling, Georgia's community service boards offer therapy and psychiatry on a sliding scale — you don't need insurance. Be ready for a waitlist for regular appointments; crisis lines never have one. Some nonprofits and training clinics offer free or cheap counseling with shorter waits — ask 211 what's open near you.
What to expect when you call: a screening conversation (10–20 minutes) about what's going on, then an intake appointment. Saying "I'm in crisis" moves you faster. You can ask for a Spanish-speaking counselor.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission offers information, support, and resources if you are facing discrimination, harassment, or unfair treatment. They can help you understand your rights and what to do next.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission looks into complaints when someone is treated unfairly at work because of their race, color, religion, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, or national origin. They can help if your employer paid you unfairly or punished you for speaking up.
