Preble County Local Crisis Line:
1-866-532-3097  
The Preble Count Local Crisis Line is available to all residents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Calling the crisis line will immediately connect you with a mental health professional who can help. 
What happens when I call the crisis # above?
  1. You will talk to a live mental health professional who will assess your situation, and attempt to talk you through your crisis.
  2. If the professional finds that you are an immediate threat to yourself or someone else, they will call the proper authorities, usually police and mental health personnel from Samaritan Behavioral Health, Inc., to respond to your location.
  3. If you are not an immediate threat to yourself or others, you will continue to talk to the support person until you feel more in control of you situation. You will be referred to continued treatment, or may make an appointment at that time with a mental health professional as soon as possible, according to your individual need.
  4. All calls are private.
