We give to others on the days when we feel strong so that we can receive from someone else lifting us up on the days when our strength is lacking! We all need connection, now more than ever. Come participate in Listening Line for some real, no-judgment connection with another human. Not just to be heard, but also to listen and connect with someone else. You choose your days and hours, and the number will connect directly to your phone so you can take calls and texts. All those working on the Listening Line will need to take our Listening Training.

Mission Statement
Making opportunities for meaningful human connection universally accessible in order to prevent deaths of despair.
Description
In a hyper-local, community mental health approach, SeekHealing is a grassroots "social health" project to facilitate experiences of intentional and meaningful human connection between neighbors.
Piloted successfully in Western North Carolina since 2018 with support from Dr. Gabor Mate and other leading experts in trauma and Relational Cultural Theory (RCT), regional programs deliver the following at no cost to participants:
- Equitable public health education in social communication and emotional regulation skills
- Facilitated social experiences: substance-free parties, peer-driven support meetings, and community gatherings
- Human-powered technology solutions that facilitate individual neighbors showing up for each other’s social & mental health needs
