We do care, and have launched a website to let you know that we value you, we will listen to you, and will provide you with resources for you to get help, as well as give you a voice.

You don't have to face your problems alone!
YourLifeYourVoice.org is part of The Boys Town National Hotline.
Please contact us if you're depressed, contemplating suicide, being physically or sexually abused, on the run, addicted, threatened by gang violence, fighting with a friend or parent, or if you are faced with an overwhelming challenge.
The Boys Town National Hotline has been taking calls from kids and families since 1989. In fact, we have taken over 9 million calls since we started.
We encourage people to contact us by phone if they are in any danger, or if it’s a really serious issue. Talking on the phone can provide more immediate help, but we do know that sometimes you might be more comfortable contacting us via chat, text, or email.
Whichever way you'd like to contact us, we'd like to help! We are here 24/7.
Who Answers My Calls, Emails, and Texts?
Our counselors are available 24/7 and have a wide range of experiences working with kids and families who are frustrated, depressed, or just need someone to talk to. Most importantly, they genuinely care and want to help!
