about it yet and it’s a very important resource! <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">YouthLine is a 24/7 crisis line for teens. It’s a “non-profit dedicated to preventing substance abuse and suicide.” Teen volunteers answer the phone calls, texts, and chats from 4-10 PM daily and adults answer
the phone at other times. “</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt">YouthLine also operates a peer-supported
<a href="http://oregonyouthline.org/outreach/">outreach program</a> to destigmatize mental health challenges, increase awareness for mental health and wellness, and encourage youth to reach out for help. YouthLine’s helpline and outreach programs are supported
by our <a href="http://oregonyouthline.org/volunteer/">youth development program</a>, which builds skills and confidence around mental health and wellness.”</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
