What to Expect When You Call
In English En EspañolService and Confidentiality Information
The William James INTERFACE Referral Service is a mental health referral service and is not designed to respond to urgent situations where someone’s well-being might be at immediate and serious risk. If you require a crisis response to meet immediate safety needs, we will give you the contact information for the crisis responder that can best assist you. We will still be available to you after the crisis has been stabilized to work with you to find mental health services for yourself, child or family.
The William James INTERFACE Referral Service is also very careful with the sensitive information you may share with us, and works to safeguard your information and protect your privacy. However, in situations such as when there is a serious risk of harm to yourself, or of harm to someone else, or someone who may be dependent upon you such as a child, older adult or a person with a disability, we may be required by law to report the situation to an appropriate agency responsible for ensuring safety.
Material on the William James INTERFACE Referral Service website is intended as general information. It is not a recommendation for treatment, nor should it be considered medical or mental health advice. The William James INTERFACE Referral Service urges families to discuss all information and questions related to medical or mental health care with a health care professional.
