Vibrant Emotional Health Applauds U.S. Senate Efforts to Strengthen Cybersecurity of 988 Lifeline
May 25, 2023 by Vibrant Public Policy Department

As the administrator of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (988 Lifeline) and other crucial mental health services and programs, Vibrant Emotional Health (Vibrant) supports S. 1493, also known as the 988 Lifeline Cybersecurity Responsibility Act (The Act), a recent effort to improve the cybersecurity of the 988 Lifeline. The Act would require better coordination between the Lifeline and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to eradicate potential vulnerabilities and prevent cybersecurity attacks. The bill would also mandate the Government Accountability Office to conduct a study evaluating cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities throughout the 988 network and greater reporting requirements for Vibrant Emotional Health regarding cybersecurity vulnerabilities and incidents.
