FROM CARRIE KUBACKI, HEALTH & WELLNESS EDUCATOR, UW-MADISON EXTENSION

The coronavirus pandemic has created even more emotional strain on us as individuals, families and communities.  Social isolation, worry and fear, powerlessness, and families required to be home together can push any of us to our limits.  While we may have been managing our daily stress well prior to the outbreak, all of the new challenges may create a personal or family crisis for which we need immediate assistance.  Whether it is us or someone we know, reaching out for help is a sign of strength and commitment to our own well-being and to our loved ones.  Below is a list of local or national crisis lines that can be contacted 24/7.
