INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Family and Social Services Administration has launched a new website, BeWellIndiana.org, that will provide Hoosiers with free mental health resources that have been vetted by experts.

The site is designed to help with the increase in anxiety, depression and other mental health issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including both first-time issues as well as pre-existing mental health concerns.

Initially, BeWellIndiana.org will focus on the various mental health challenges due to COVID-19, but will continue to evolve as a resource beyond the current crisis.

Hoosiers can visit BeWellIndiana.org to find resources curated by FSSA’s Division of Mental Health and Addiction, including information ranging from coping mechanisms, crisis counseling, how to self-monitor for signs of stress, domestic violence resources, substance use disorder and recovery and tips for helping children, youth and teens.
