988 Lifeline Soars in Nebraska | Lincoln News

Nebraska’s 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is booming—handling over a million calls, texts, and crises in just one year, more than doubling its first-year numbers. With 12,000 connections last fiscal year—10,000 first-timers—it’s clear people are finally turning to mental health support when they need it most. Launched nationwide in 2022 as a simple, 911-style number, 988 offers immediate, compassionate help, with 90% of calls managed locally and the rest routed to specialized services. The surge proves stigma is fading, and the goal is clear: make 988 as familiar and trusted as 911 for anyone in crisis.

Shark Safety Program in Crisis | Lincoln News

A vital shark safety program tracking great whites along California’s coast is on the brink of shutting down due to a funding crisis. For four years, this initiative has educated millions—especially during a predicted “very sharky” summer—about shark behavior, reducing panic by distinguishing real sightings from false alarms. Covering everything from Malibu to the Mexico border, it’s identified hundreds of sharks and logged over 100 encounters this year. Run by the Long Beach Shark Lab with a 20-year legacy, the program is now scrambling to secure new funding from foundations and city agencies to keep lifesaving data and public outreach alive. Without it, beachgoers risk being left in the dark—making coastal adventures far more dangerous. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
