Teen Line is an absolutely amazing program that I had the honor to volunteer for in high school. Teen line gives teens a place to go when they feel most alone. So many teenagers feel uncomfortable talking to adults about problems they are dealing with, but find much more ease opening up to another teenager whom they feel has a more common experience with them. Teen line provides that safety of talking to someone your own age while also having such incredible training for the teenagers on the line that the callers are not losing anything by talking with a peer. Overall Teen Line is an amazing program that I have personally seen change many people's lives for the better and will continue to do so for a long time.

TeenLine is an incredible organization that has been around for 35 years. I have the pleasure of working as one of their Resource Associates. The teens are incredible and share their empathy and questions that have helped so so so many teens in crisis for 35 years. This organization needs to thrive and it is imperative people make it a priority to get the name out there and support TeenLine so more ttenages can be saved and/or supported.
