Program Descriptions
Twenty-Four Hour
Crisis Line - HopeLine offers a free 24 hour crisis line for Triangle
residents. We also accept calls from
outside the Triangle as well. Callers will speak with a trained crisis counselor. Crisis counselors are trained to take
calls such as immediate suicide, third party/non emergency suicide, child
abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, mental health, interpersonal
relationships, sexual issues, and substance abuse. Crisis counselors will provide best
practices for all clients. Crisis
counselors will also provide referrals for callers when needed or
requested.
Teen TalkLine — We offer teens an opportunity to talk
to trained volunteers about important issues in their lives 24 hours a day.
Reassurance Calls to Seniors — We make brief
"check-in" calls to senior citizens who are continuing to live
independently with little or no daily contact with others. These daily
calls provide reassurance and a reminder that there is a compassionate
person who cares and is willing to listen.
Educational Programs on HopeLine Services, active
listening, depression and suicide, especially among teens.
Please call the business office for more information and to request a
speaker for your group.
