RESOURCES
At Coventry Legacy, we are committed to connecting our community with tools and support beyond our own services. This page includes carefully curated resources to help individuals access crisis alternatives, community aid, and mental health support across the nation. Many of these links are directly sourced from dontcallthepolice.com, a trusted directory of non-police emergency response options and grassroots organizations. We encourage you to explore these listings to find support that aligns with your safety, identity, and needs. Please note that while we believe in the value of these resources, we do not directly manage them and recommend contacting each organization for the most up-to-date information.
