Peer Volunteers Needed For NAMI Warm Line
The NAMI Warm Line is a non-emergency phone line for people living
with a mental illness, currently looking for volunteers. Individuals can call the Warm Line if need someone to
talk to, or going through a stressful time, feeling cut-off from the world and
isolated. The Warm Line is seeking caring individuals to help with the Line.
Volunteers should possess or be willing to develop strong communication skills,
possess the ability to work independently, as well as in a group, and have
an interest in working with adults of
diverse backgrounds with mental health issues. Mandatory telephone training and
QPR Gatekeeper Suicide Prevention Training are required. Priority will be given
to those living with mental illness, but all interested parties should give it
a try!
