Virginia Help and Resource Directory
Direct starting points for crisis support, everyday needs, and legal information. These are external services; listing them does not imply a partnership or guarantee eligibility.
Immediate danger or emotional crisis
In the United States, call 911 for immediate danger or a medical emergency. For suicide or emotional crisis support, call or text 988. SAMHSA explains these options.
MTM’s forum, chat, and general inbox are not emergency response channels.
Domestic or sexual violence support in Virginia
The Virginia statewide hotline is available at 1-800-838-8238; text 804-793-9999. The Virginia Department of Social Services lists these options and connections to local support. Use the service’s current guidance about access and safety.
Food, housing, and everyday support
Dial 211 for Virginia resource information. The Virginia DSS contact directory lists 2-1-1 Virginia and local social services offices. Describe your general location and the type of help you need; the service can explain available referrals.
Legal information and finding a lawyer
- Virginia Judicial System self-help portal: official court topics, forms, and procedural information.
- Find a lawyer through the Virginia courts’ directory: legal-help starting points; providers determine eligibility and scope.
- Virginia State Bar Lawyer Referral Service: check the service’s current consultation terms and fees before requesting a referral.
Have the court name, general issue, and any urgent date ready. Ask the provider what it needs before sending private records.
Use this directory safely
Check the destination’s address before sharing information. A link is a starting point, not a promise that a service can take your case. For a broken listing, send the page address and correction through Contact; do not include case documents.
