Q Chat Space facilitators are not medical or mental health professionals and cannot provide crisis intervention. Q Chat Space facilitators may also be required by state law to report information shared in the chat if you share that you are being abused (physically, sexually, or emotionally) or that you want to hurt yourself or someone else.
