Below, you will find a collection of national resources to assist you in responding to crisis situations.

Please familiarize yourself and your team with the reporting requirements for your state and county along with any policies that your organization might have. If your church doesn not already have a list of local crisis resources, we suggest putting one together of organizations your church has vetted.

These organizations are not endorsed or vetted by the American Association of Christian Counselors or Gloo. It is your responsibility to research the organizations prior to referring them to an Explorer.
