Youth in Alameda County sometimes need to talk to trained counselors who care. Texting a crisis line can help youth think through their situation and stay safe. Our comprehensive training prepares volunteers to do just that and more! All the training and volunteer shifts are held in a supportive, fun loving environment at our North Oakland offices. Most of the activities will be evenings and weekends. Please check out the link below for more information and to apply. Thank you :) http://www.crisissupport.org/get-involved/text-line-volunteer/
