They know how to help because they've been there. Our program opportunities are completely FREE and include specialized peer support groups, mental health educational courses for individuals and their families, children’s programming, art support groups, and much more.

The Zepf Center has been a Behavioral Healthcare resource in Toledo for over 40 years. With a rich history of helping those in need, we are dedicated to treating our patients with respect and providing hope.

Something to look out for when concerned that a person may be suicidal is a change in behavior or the presence of entirely new behaviors. This is of sharpest concern if the new or changed behavior is related to a painful event, loss, or change. Most people who take their lives exhibit one or more warning signs, either through what they say or what they do. 

This is a free and confidential resource that connects individuals with skilled, trained counselors 24/7. (United States)
