Our volunteers, on and off the hotline, are heroes to CrisisLink and the community. With nearly 150 volunteers answering phones, providing community training, advocating for services, and providing governance, CrisisLink is able to apply 81 cents of every dollar directly to programs — programs that save lives, enliven hope, and build communities.
