SafeUtah and Bridgerland Technical College
Bridgerland Technical College is proud to announce that we are part of the SafeUT app! This app provides students with a free crisis text and tip line where counseling, suicide prevention and referral services are available.
Licensed clinicians are available on the 24/7 CrisisLine call center and respond to all incoming chats, texts, and calls by providing:
- supportive or crisis counseling,
- suicide prevention, and
- referral services.
SafeUtah can help anyone with emotional crises, bullying, relationship problems, mental health, or suicide-related issues.
Free & Confidential Crisis Services
SafeUT is free and confidential.
If an “active rescue” is necessary – meaning crisis counselor believe the user is in immediate danger – the counselor will alert emergency services to attempt a face-to-face safety evaluation based on the information provided by the user.
