City of Three Forks issued the following announcement.
Mayor Gifford addressed Three Forks residents via Facebook with a message announcing his intention to establish a help line. This is now active!
The purpose of the help line is to streamline the process to get assistance to Three Forks’ residents. This will help get the goods and supplies they may need, and most importantly direct help to people needing assistance at home. Just call 406-548-2304 and speak with the appointed Public Information Officer (PIO).
This is a confidential help line which for those needing assistance – the PIO takes the call, hears your story and learns your specific needs, then they dispatch that information to the Food Bank, or Ministerial Association, or other resources. The service agency will contact the caller and provide them the specific help needed.
This Is Not A Substitute For 9-1-1!
· If you are feeling ill, you should still seek medical attention by calling your medical provider, or 9-1-1 if you need it.
· For Mental Health emergencies call the Help Center 24/7 at 586-3333
· Western Montana Mental Health Center offers online and phone therapy 556-6500
· Acute crisis services are available at the Hope House 585-1130
· Crisis Text Line: text “MT” to 741-741
If you can volunteer – please call the PIO and let them know what you can help with. We are building a volunteer list.
Again, if you need a confidential line here in Three Forks to ask for help, please contact the Public Information Officer at 548-2304.
