Text-A-Tip by LEAD
LEAD (Linking Efforts Against Drugs) is a drug prevention coalition based in Lake Forest/Lake Bluff, Illinois that has developed an app to help youth stay drug free. Participants struggling with anxiety, depression, or substance abuse can send anonymous texts 24/7 and be responded to by licensed professionals in their own community. Text-A-Tip is currently the the only hotline available in the US that offers full anonymity.
