ACM Lifting Lives launches Hope Line for country music professionals
In honour of World Mental Health Day, ACM Lifting Lives, the philanthropic partner of the Academy of Country Music, proudly announces the launch of ACM Lifting Lives Hope Line. Continuing the organization’s efforts to champion mental health within the Country Music community, this concierge call line offers immediate support and access to mental health assistance for all those working in the Country Music industry nationwide.
“Our team at ACM Lifting Lives is constantly exploring new ways to support those within our tight-knit Country Music family, and the ACM Lifting Lives Hope Line is just one more way for us to extend help to those who need it among our community,” says Lyndsay Cruz, Executive Director of ACM Lifting Lives. “Whether you’re touring across the nation or working a 9-5 on Music Row, mental health is so important, and this call line will hopefully streamline the process of finding the right providers and general mental health support whenever needed.”
“As part of our commitment to supporting the well-being of those who dedicate their lives to the music industry, we’re excited to introduce the new mental health support program for the Country Music community through ACM Lifting Lives,” says Ryan Cain, CEO of the Hope Desk. “This initiative is designed to ensure they have access to professional, confidential resources whenever needed, whether they’re facing anxiety, depression, stress, or any form of addiction. No one should feel alone when dealing with these challenges, and we’re here to provide the support they need.”
The ACM Lifting Lives Hope Line joins several existing resources provided by ACM Lifting Lives, including the organisation’s notable, emergency relief fund, which is available year-round and provides financial assistance to those in the Country Music industry experiencing sudden and unforeseen financial hardships for a multitude of reasons.
The ACM Lifting Lives Hope Line will be managed and implemented by The Hope Desk, which offers the concierge service and a network of trusted mental health and substance use programs nationwide to ensure that those seeking assistance are directed to the most appropriate resources in a confidential and timely manner.
