Prioritized listing

Status: source checked

Prioritized routing selects the first source-checked or cross-referenced listing in category order: suicide crisis, mental health, domestic violence, sexual violence, child protection, then general support. It then uses the first listing in that category order, or the first dataset listing. This does not determine suitability, eligibility, live availability, or provide medical advice.
