5 Overall Experience   
Teen Link - the ultimate learning experience!

I've been volunteering at the Crisis Clinic (and more specifically, Teen Link) as a phone worker. I've gained so much insight regarding the way we tick. I've learned how to look at a tough conflict objectively and with empathy.. which is a lot harder when you're doing it over the phone. posted by ykantchristype on July 22, 2003
