Project INTERFACE


G-DAY is proud to support communication of a new resource introduced 1/2/12 by Groton-Dunstable Teenage Anxiety and Depression Solutions" (TADS) to all Groton and Dunstable residents.

Message from Steve Boczenowski of TADS:
Beginning January 2, 2012, Groton and Dunstable will be served by Project INTERFACE.  Project INTERFACE is a mental health referral service, described more fully below, which is available Mon-Fri, 9:00-5:00.  The telephone number is 888-244-6843 x 411

Please note: This is not a crisis line, in case of a life crisis, call 911, or the national suicide prevention hotline at 1-800-273-talk.

Project INTERFACE (www.projectinterface.org) is a mental health referral service which provides a "HelpLine", i.e. a telephone number
staffed during regular business hours.  The people on the other end of the HelpLine are trained mental health professionals who have access to an extensive database of local mental health providers. Beginning Jan 2, 2012, residents from Groton or Dunstable can call for themselves or a loved one, explain the issue they are concerned about, discuss it with someone who knows what they're talking about, and then get a referral.  The referral will take into account schedule availability and insurance and will be available for all ages: children, adults, and seniors.

Teenage Anxiety & Depression Solutions (TADS) will be funding this service from Project INTERFACE for two years.  Thereafter, we hope the service will be paid for with public funds.  TADS is able to do this because of the generosity of many people who have donated their hard-earned dollars. We are in the middle of our annual appeal - if you would like to contribute, please send a check to TADS to this address:

Project INTERFACE is now available to Groton and Dunstable. If you need a mental health referral call the helpline during business at 888-244-6843 x411 and they will set you up with a mental health specialist who has an opening with your insurance within a few days.
