YouthLine is a free peer-to-peer help, support, and crisis line for youth up to age 24. No problem is too big or too small for YouthLine – reach out to us today!
YouthLine is confidential to a point: while we will never share conversations had on the lines, we are mandatory reporters. If a young person is experiencing or has experienced abuse, neglect, or assault, or if there are immediate safety concerns, YouthLine may contact other agencies to ensure the best support and safety for the young person in crisis.
YouthLine calls, texts, chats, and email responses are provided in English. Translation is available for phone calls through a live interpreter. We help find available resources in languages other than English when requested.
