    Caring Contact believes that every human being has intrinsic value. We provide hope, offer compassion, and save lives through our caring and crisis hotline and community outreach programming. We devote ourselves to preventing suicide and other self-destructive behavior by listening actively and empathetically to people in distress, offering them emotional support without judgment. Since volunteers make our service possible, we are committed to providing an enriched, rewarding volunteer experience.
