Resources


SQSH, or the St. Louis Queer+ Support Helpline, offers free, confidential, and identity-affirming emotional support, resources, and referrals. Whatever your needs may be, we are here to support you, or will connect you to someone who can.


Disclaimer: If you are having a medical or mental health emergency, please call someone you trust, 911, or one of these local or national hotlines first. We still welcome your call after you are in the process of receiving the immediate help that you need.

We are a short-term volunteer peer-counseling service. While we are guided by our Clinical Supervisors, we are no substitute for long-term, professional mental health care. Please visit MTUG's list of vetted providers or SQSHBook (once it launches) to contact a mental healthcare provider in the Greater St. Louis area.
