Mental health struggles are more common than many people think.

You are not alone, and you don’t have to face it on your own. Support is here when you need it.

[CONTACT Care Line @ContactListens]

You don’t have to have the “right” words to reach out.

Starting the conversation can feel hard, but you don’t need to have everything figured out. Whether it’s a few words, a lot to say, or not knowing where to begin at all, there’s someone here to listen.

In April, connection showed up in powerful ways.

Each number represents a real person, a real moment, and the power of being heard. Thank you to our crisis line responders and community for making this support possible every single day.

[CONTACT Care Line @ContactListens]

You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support.

There’s a common misconception that reaching out is only for the most serious moments but many people connect simply because they need someone to listen, to process what they’re feeling, or to not feel alone.

We’re proud to celebrate Michelle Gatewood, our Deputy Executive Director, for presenting at the American Association of Suicidology Annual Conference.

We’re grateful to have her leadership representing CONTACT Care Line and advancing compassionate, effective care.

Motherhood doesn’t look the same for everyone and not every story is seen or supported in the ways it should be.

CONTACT Care Line is here to listen without judgment, 24/7.

[CONTACT Care Line @ContactListens]

The truth is, connection and conversation are at the heart of what we do. When you reach out, you’re met with compassion, understanding, and someone ready to listen.

[CONTACT Care Line @ContactListens]

Setting boundaries can feel uncomfortable, but it’s one of the most important ways we take care of ourselves.

[CONTACT Care Line @ContactListens]

Together, we’ll explore simple, meaningful ways to care for your mental and emotional well-being, while creating space for connection and conversation. Self-care isn’t just a trend; it’s an essential part of staying well at every stage of life.
