A Hoarding Alliance local resource guide
You do not have to solve everything at once. Start with the concern that matters most today, and choose a next step that respects the person, their choices, and their safety.
Start here - Fight the Blight
Fight the Blight is the nonprofit front door for hoarding-related support. The Peer Tree offers private-pay support; Unburied is a digital peer-support option, not therapy or emergency care. These options can help you choose a next step without agreeing to a visit, referral, or change at home.
A starting point for people affected by hoarding, family and friends, and community partners. Ask what options may fit your location and situation; local funding, eligibility, and capacity vary.
Nonprofit front door for hoarding-related support
If someone is in immediate danger, call 911. For emotional, mental-health, or substance-use crisis support anywhere in New Mexico, call or text 988 or call the New Mexico Crisis and Access Line at 1-855-662-7474. These guide listings are not emergency response.
First conversations
You do not need to know the perfect service name before reaching out. These organizations can help you understand the landscape and identify a next step.
Private-pay support may be relevant when grant-funded services are unavailable or do not fit. Ask about the service, travel to Rio Arriba County, consent-centered approach, rates, and current availability before making plans.
A peer-led digital space for people affected by clutter and for friends or family. Unburied is not therapy, clinical care, or emergency support; check current access and features directly.
The county describes Connect as a way to coordinate referrals across medical, behavioral-health, and social services, with a Findhelp resource portal. Ask which options serve Tierra Amarilla and whether screening, eligibility, or appointments are required.
Safety and stability
These pathways serve different situations. Read the labels carefully before calling, especially when a response may involve crisis care, protective services, shelter, housing rules, legal advocacy, or emergency dispatch.
Call 911 when a person faces immediate danger, a life-threatening medical emergency, or needs urgent emergency response. Do not delay emergency help while checking this directory.
Call or text 988 for emotional distress, suicidal thoughts, or crisis support. If there is immediate danger or a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
The statewide line is listed as available 24 hours a day, every day, for crisis support and behavioral-health service access. Call to confirm the right local next step.
A peer connection option during the hours posted by the program. Call or text to confirm current hours and whether this kind of support fits; use 988 or 911 for crisis or emergency needs.
The center describes support for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. Contact the center to ask about current services, safety planning, eligibility, and the best way to reach staff; published information reviewed here did not establish 24-hour line coverage.
The county lists public-housing and voucher programs and reports units in Tierra Amarilla. Ask whether applications or waitlists are open, what documents are needed, and whether an accessible unit or reasonable accommodation is available.
The statewide resource center can help identify aging and disability services. Ask about local programs, benefits counseling, home supports, and whether a specific service reaches Tierra Amarilla.
The hospital lists 24-hour emergency care at its Española location. Call 911 for immediate emergency response; for non-emergency needs, contact a clinic or service navigator instead.
People and practical help
These listings connect the local community with housing, food, behavioral health, benefits, transit, survivor advocacy, disability support, peer support, and practical resources. Ask about current availability, cost, scope, consent, and safety before relying on them.
The local clinic lists primary care in Tierra Amarilla. Call to ask whether the clinic can address the concern, what records or insurance information to bring, and what costs may apply.
The clinic's public description identifies counseling for children, adolescents, and families. It does not establish adult counseling or hoarding-specialty care; call to confirm who is currently served and what referrals are available.
The clinic lists dental care locally. Call before traveling to confirm hours, appointment requirements, accepted coverage, and current fees.
County Health and Human Services describes Connect coordination and a Findhelp portal for medical, behavioral-health, and social-service connections. Ask what is currently operating and which options serve your community.

The county lists home-delivered meals for people who qualify as homebound. Call to ask about screening, service area, current capacity, wait time, and any contribution.

The district serves parts of Rio Arriba County, but the current area page does not establish a Tierra Amarilla stop. Call before arranging a trip; schedules and service can change.
The authority lists a Tierra Amarilla center and operating details. Before moving items, ask what materials are accepted, current fees and permit rules, and whether the site is open; do not treat disposal as a required first step in support.
The statewide organization lists services for New Mexico residents and an intake line. Ask about the type of legal problem, income screening, deadlines, language access, and whether an appointment or referral is available.

A note from the Alliance
This guide is anchored in Tierra Amarilla, New Mexico, and includes city, county, state, nonprofit, national, and independent pathways. A listing here does not mean Fight the Blight endorses every provider or can guarantee availability. The Hoarding Alliance is not a city or county agency, therapy practice, emergency service, or cleanup company. We will keep reviewing this page, but please confirm details directly before relying on them.
