Hi Everyone!
So I’m new to blogging and new to the Crisis Line. I’m super excited and can’t believe how rewarding it has already been. Thinking I just might be a help to someone in a time of crisis is an understatement.
CCY really prepaired me for being a counselor on the phone and that immediately became apparent with my first call.
It’s encouraging to know that when you are able to listen and empathize with the caller, you’re doing more than you can imagine. Little does the caller know that they are doing something tremendous themselves. This sounds to be a very positive and hugely rewarding adventure.
Who’s with me?!?

Thank Heather!! I’m so glad I’ve chosen this organization. It really is very empowering.
By the way, the Conferrence was great and it was nice to be recognized, even if I’m new to volunteering!
