The South Carolina Department of Mental Health (SCDMH) is dedicated to supporting the recovery of individuals with mental illnesses through evidence-based, culturally competent, and high-quality care.

We offer safe, free services through partnerships with the Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services, including an anonymous Self-Check Questionnaire to connect you with professional guidance and resources for mental health and addiction services.

If you are facing challenges—whether due to stress, depression, addiction, or pandemic hardships—help is available. Contact our 24/7 Community Crisis Response Team at 833-DMH-CCRI or 844-SC-HOPES for immediate support. SCDMH is open and serving all of South Carolina, providing comprehensive care and coping skills.
