L2HS will continue to facilitate 24/7 provision of chat (Lifeline) and SMS (DDH) technology platforms through SiteMax and iCarol (chat) and Mosio (SMS) systems. L2HS will continue to regularly provide data to SAMHSA and the network demonstrating connectivity and other user trend reports to monitor service activity and quality. Towards the goal of building network communications, capacity and cohesion, L2HS and its partners will utilize a variety of remote (e.g., web-based newsletters, online Network Resource Center, telephonic and email outreach and education) and direct (conferences, workshops) communications approaches that have proven effective in attracting valuable centers from underserved areas of the country and building a "community of practice" for crisis centers.
