Seeking caring, compassionate volunteers to staff our suicide prevention crisis hotline.

Volunteers are asked to cover a 2.5-hour shift weekly. A minimum of a 6-month commitment is expected.
Internships - for credit and paid - are offered to undergraduate and graduate-level students currently enrolled in a college or university in the U.S.
Prospective volunteers must also undergo a background check as part of the application process.
All volunteer work is done remotely. Volunteers must have a quiet, confidential space to work in.
