Warmlines for U.S. Callers

We are here 24/7 at Supportiv to listen and understand — via chat. If you prefer to talk on the phone, or just don’t like to type, “warmlines” may be a good option for you.

Warmlines are like “hotlines,” but instead of calling in crisis, you call when you just want to talk.

All of the below warmlines are available to anyone in the United States. The lines may be run locally, but they are all open to anyone who wants to talk.
