Cadence

Find help

Real help, outside this app.

These are publicly listed services run by other organizations — crisis lines, addiction treatment finders, and low-cost or sliding-scale care. Tap to call, text, or open their official site. Cadence does not contact them for you and is not part of your care with them.

If someone may be in danger right now, call your local emergency number — 911 in the U.S. and Canada.
