The Disaster Distress Helpline, a free federal resource for victims of natural or manmade disasters, is available for people to contact if they are experiencing anxiety, stress or other emotional distress due to the firestorms. Callers can talk with a trained counselor 24/7 in the language of their choice. Callers need not be directly impacted by the incident, given the current situation in the greater Los Angeles area, according to a representative of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. Call or text 1-800-985-5990. Deaf and hard of hearing ASL callers  can text or call using their preferred relay provider.
