The Crisis Line provides confidential telephone crisis intervention through active listening and support by trained volunteers.  Volunteers respond to callers' concerns, empowering the individual to meet their own needs and find their own solutions.

Volunteers of the Crisis Line work from their hearts listening to those needing someone to talk to about whatever they may be going through.

If you or someone you know is in need of support, call the Crisis Line at 250.763.9191.
