Kimberly Williams, President and CEO of Vibrant Emotional Health expressed her enthusiasm about the new headquarters, stating, “This marks a significant milestone for Vibrant as we establish a central hub for our national efforts to promote emotional well-being. It is an investment in the well-being and productivity of our dedicated staff.

“Vibrant Emotional Health’s operation of the 988 Lifeline is critical during this ongoing crisis,” said New York City Health Commissioner Dr. Ashwin Vasan. “Facilitating access to mental health resources and crisis response at your fingertips helps people get the help they need when they need it. We’re proud to partner with Vibrant to support connections to resources because New York City is better when we center mental health.”

“Congratulations to Vibrant Emotional Health on the grand opening of their new headquarters, an important milestone in their long-standing track record of promoting well-being for over 50 years. We value their partnership with New York City and appreciate their impactful work operating 988 to ensure that New Yorkers have timely access to mental health support,” said Eva Wong, Executive Director of the Mayor’s Office of Community Mental Health. “Vibrant’s comprehensive community programs that emphasize support, coping skills, and care coordination are also important assets for local individuals and families as they navigate the ups and downs of life. I applaud them for prioritizing employee well-being as they help their fellow New Yorkers build healthy and fulfilling lives.”

State Senator Brian Kavanagh, who represents Lower Manhattan, said: “The grand opening of Vibrant Emotional Health’s new headquarters in Lower Manhattan is cause for celebration for Lower Manhattan and all of New York. I am happy to have one of the nation’s leading mental health organizations in my district to provide mental health programming and support to individuals and communities in need. We must prioritize ensuring that all New Yorkers have access to high-quality mental wellness services.”
