Resources & Support
You Don't Have to Figure Everything Out Alone.
Sometimes life gets heavy.
Sometimes you need encouragement. Sometimes you need information. And sometimes you need help finding the right person or place to turn to.
Because of Tyler was built around a simple belief:
People matter.
Their stories matter.
Their struggles matter.
And nobody should feel like they have to carry everything alone.
This page is here to help connect you—or someone you love—with organizations and resources that may be able to help.
There is nothing to purchase here.
No email required.
Just resources.
Love. Comfort. Connection. Always.

Mental Health & Substance Use Treatment
Asking for help can feel overwhelming.
Finding where to start shouldn't have to be.
FindTreatment.gov
FindTreatment.gov is a confidential and anonymous resource from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
You can search by location for mental-health and substance-use treatment facilities throughout the United States and its territories.
Search options can help you locate services for:
• Mental-health treatment
• Substance-use treatment
• Opioid treatment
• Residential treatment
• Outpatient treatment
• Co-occurring mental-health and substance-use needs
• Other treatment and recovery services
Before visiting a facility, contact the facility directly to confirm that it provides the services you need and to ask about availability, insurance, payment options, and admission requirements.
SAMHSA National Helpline
If you need help locating mental-health or substance-use treatment:
Call: 1-800-662-HELP (4357)
SAMHSA's National Helpline provides treatment referral and information.
Recovery Housing, Sober Living & Halfway Houses
Having a safe place to live can be an important part of recovery.
Terms such as recovery residence, sober living, transitional housing, and halfway house may describe different types of housing and support, so always contact a program directly to understand exactly what it provides.
FindTreatment.gov
SAMHSA describes transitional housing as temporary housing that may support people moving from intensive treatment toward more independent living.
Use FindTreatment.gov to search for treatment and recovery services in your area.
SEARCH RECOVERY & TREATMENT SERVICES
National Alliance for Recovery Residences (NARR)
NARR maintains a directory of state affiliates connected with recovery-residence standards and certification.
Use its affiliate directory to see whether your state has a recovery-residence organization that can help you learn more about local options.
FIND RECOVERY HOUSING RESOURCES
Before choosing any residence: Ask about costs, rules, services, staffing, certifications/accreditation where applicable, medication policies, transportation, length of stay, refund policies, and exactly what support is provided.
Because of Tyler does not operate, inspect, certify, or endorse individual recovery residences.
Housing, Food & Local Community Resources
Sometimes the problem isn't knowing you need help.
It's figuring out where to start.
211
Call 211 to connect with local community resources.
Depending on what's available in your area, 211 may help you locate services involving:
• Housing
• Food assistance
• Mental-health resources
• Substance-use services
• Health care
• Utility assistance
• Transportation
• Other community support
Call: 211
Grief & Loss
Grief doesn't follow a schedule.
There is no perfect timeline for missing someone, and there is no single correct way to carry loss.
If you're grieving, consider reaching out to a licensed mental-health professional, local grief-support organization, hospice bereavement program, faith/community organization if that's meaningful to you, or a local NAMI affiliate for help locating resources.
You can also use:
211 — Call 211 for local community resources.
NAMI HelpLine — 1-800-950-NAMI (6264) for mental-health information and resource support.
988 — Call or text 988 if grief has become an emotional or mental-health crisis.
You don't have to explain your grief perfectly before you're allowed to ask for help.
Support for Family & Friends
Watching someone you love struggle can leave you feeling helpless, exhausted, angry, scared, or completely unsure of what to do next.
You deserve support, too.
NAMI offers resources and programs for family members and caregivers supporting someone experiencing mental-health challenges.
NAMI FAMILY & CAREGIVER SUPPORT
If you're trying to help someone find mental-health or substance-use treatment, you can also search:
FIND TREATMENT FOR SOMEONE I LOVE
Supporting someone does not mean you have to carry everything by yourself.
A Reminder From Because of Tyler
You don't need to have the perfect words before you ask for help.
You don't need to wait until things become unbearable.
You don't need to know exactly what kind of help you need before making the first call.
Sometimes the first step is simply saying:
“I'm not doing okay, and I need somebody to help me figure out what comes next.”
Make the call.
Send the text.
Ask the question.
Check on the person you've been thinking about.
And if somebody tells you they're struggling, listen.
Because people matter.
And while we're lucky enough to have them here, let's remind them that they do.
