People who are looking for a meaningful and enriching volunteer activity say that after a hotline shift they feel as if they have done something important by listening to another person's story.

The volunteer experience that looks good on any resume.
People in "people" professions, such as real estate and sales, human services, customer service, and education are especially drawn to the hotline. The training and experience on the hotline enhance their communication skills and help them in their jobs.

The volunteer experience for people who want to give back to their community.
Many busy people volunteer on the hotline because they know that it is an essential resource for children, youth, and adults in central New York. They don't want any call to go unanswered. |
A speaker can come to your workplace, place of worship or organization to talk about the art of listening and the value of volunteering on the hotline.
