Serve your community
We believe that every person should:Have access to a confidential, anonymous crisis line; Have an opportunity to be heard without judgment or condemnation; Be empowered in the choices that they can make that affect their lives; Have relevant information about the services available in the community.
Volunteering with CONTACT can be your opportunity to provide this hope or reassurance that callers need. Offering hope to someone who feels helpless can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. Check out our website at www.listenline.org for more information about who we are and what we do.
