Find A Warm Line

A warmline is a phone service you can call for support during tough times. Whether you’re in crisis or simply need someone to talk to, a warmline offers assistance. Staffed by trained peers who have experienced their own mental health challenges, warmlines provide understanding and empathy.

Warmlines are free and confidential. Unlike crisis lines or hotlines, such as the National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, which focus on immediate safety and crisis resources, warmlines are geared towards providing ongoing support. While many warmlines operate 24/7, some are open only on certain days and times.
