CONTACT Crisis Line

Every day we serve people, from teens to seniors, facing daily life challenges. Through 24-hour free confidential listening, comfort, and a connection to resources, education, and emergency assistance, we give people the ability to take back control of their lives.

Description:
CONTACT Crisis Line provides a vision of hope to over 39,000 callers every year through the free, immediate and confidential one-on-one telephone crisis prevention and intervention program, connections to resources and direct emergency aid. We are a participating agency in the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline network, and receive after hours call for the Parkland Dallas County Rape Crisis Center.

History:
CONTACT Crisis Line is one of Dallas' oldest agencies. Founded in 1967, CONTACT Crisis Line has operated uninterrupted. We have grown to include a vital TEEN CONTACT program, providing educational outreach to local high schools and middle schools, as well as a dedicated TEEN Crisis Line. We have a very active auxiliary group called CONTACT Connection that raises awareness, funds and support for the agency.
