The FCC’s actions mark a key success for counties, which advocated aggressively for accurate routing of 9-8-8 calls to become a national requirement. * By the numbers: Since launching in 2022, the 9-8-8 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline has received over 10.8 million calls, texts and chats, making it an essential tool for counties in supporting the mental health of residents. * Bipartisan support: 9-8-8 georouting has been a priority for the Bipartisan Senate Mental Health Caucus, co-founded by Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) and Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.). * NACo impact: Last year, following NACo’s advocacy on Capitol Hill and meetings with the FCC, Sens. Padilla and Tillis introduced the Local 9-8-8 Response Act of 2023, with a companion bill introduced by Rep. Tony Cárdenas, co-chair of the House 988 & Crisis Services Task Force. * Learn more about the county role in implementing the 9-8-8 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline here <https://public-usa.mkt.dynamics.com/api/orgs/227b4c5a-99e5-4698-be04-ef85d0384bf3/r/6mn_hgzw3kC-e1W20o6I LwcAAAA?target=%7B%22TargetUrl%22%3A%22https%253A%252F%252Fwww.naco.org%252Fresources%252Ftoolkit-counties-988-suicide-crisis-lifeline%22%2C%22RedirectOptions%22%3A%7B%221%22%3Anull%7D%7D&digest=LAcN R9cMY2DVOUOXM3a52BezTilEU5myAHPmDZCLkWA%3D&secretVersion=a587597bbd2d4ba3bb4334f6d8be15ee> . 2 Hurricane response and election administration <https://public-usa.mkt.dynamics.com/api/orgs/227b4c5a-99e5-4698-be04-ef85d0384bf3/r/6mn_hgzw3kC-e1W20o6ILwgAAAA?target=%7B%22TargetUrl%22%3A%22https%25 3A%252F%252Fwww.naco.org%252Fnews%252Fcounties-respond-hurricanes-ahead-november-2024-elections%22%2C%22RedirectOptions%22%3A%7B%221%22%3Anull%7D%7D&digest=gBbXaocgic3UuxDI%2FsQ780XdXxnUhfL04mwdTBOlA %2FY%3D&secretVersion=a587597bbd2d4ba3bb4334f6d8be15ee> <https://public-usa.mkt.dynamics.com/api/orgs/227b4c5a-99e5-4698-be04-ef85d0384bf3/r/6mn_hgzw3kC-e1W20o6ILwkAAAA?target=%7B%22TargetUrl%22%3A%22https%253A%252F%252Fwww.naco.org%252Fnews%252Fcounties -respond-hurricanes-ahead-november-2024-elections%22%2C%22RedirectOptions%22%3A%7B%221%22%3Anull%7D%7D&digest=gBbXaocgic3UuxDI%2FsQ780XdXxnUhfL04mwdTBOlA%2FY%3D&secretVersion=a587597bbd2d4ba3bb4334f6 d8be15ee> Two major hurricanes have hit the Southeastern U.S., devastating communities just weeks before the November elections.
