YouthLine serves as a resource for your students and youth who are struggling and could use extra support through life’s rough patches. We operate a crisis and help line answered by local teens, and we provide peer-supported outreach in the community to destigmatize mental health challenges, increase awareness for mental health and wellness, and encourage youth to reach out for help.

In recognition of the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our schools, Lines for Life has also launched the Student Suicide Assessment Line (SSAL), which is a crisis support line available for school personnel. If a school does not have the resources to conduct safety assessments for a student, a staff member can call the SSAL and a master’s-level clinician trained in suicide intervention can assist. SSAL clinicians can provide consultation, assess students directly, and collaborate with school staff to create a safety plan. The number for the Student Suicide Assessment Line is 503-575-3760, open Monday-Friday, 8:30AM-4:30PM.
