Teen Lifeline provides safe, confidential, crisis intervention services for teens. The hotline provides a safe way for teens to talk to other teens about thoughts of suicide, depression, anxiety, grades, and friend/family issues. Volunteers are truly a connection of hope to troubled teens who reach out as a last resort, or just to talk to someone who listens and cares. Trained, volunteer peer counselors ages 15-19 answer calls and texts for help from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. daily. The hotline is answered before 3 p.m. and after 9 p.m. by Solari.
