AgriStress Helpline: 24/7 Crisis Line Built for Farmers and Ranchers

July 19, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm CDT

Last updated on September 16th, 2022 at 06:57 pm

Farmers and ranchers in multiple states can now access a crisis service helpline 24/7 staffed by trained professionals. View this 30-minute overview of the newly formed AgriStress Helpline for Farmers and Ranchers. The AgriStress Helpline is an evidence-based suicide prevention lifeline designed for agricultural communities.

Participants will learn how:

  • This innovative crisis model serves a critical unmet need.
  • The model was designed by credentialed professionals trained to respond appropriately to the agricultural community, through a program developed by experts in mental health, agriculture production, mediation, and financial analysis.
  • The crisis line utilizes a “care navigation” process where the helpline responders: triage for safety and provide de-escalation using a crisis intervention model; provide emotional support and coping techniques; and, when necessary, direct callers to the appropriate resources for their situation.
  • The expansion to new states and eventually a national helpline is both economical and feasible.
