TEEN LINE Adds Help via SMS Texting

Text TEEN to 839863

Now you can text TEEN LINE! Just text “TEEN” to 839863 between 5:30pm and 9:30pm PST to speak with our peer counselors. (standard text message rates apply)

You can still call us at (310) 855-HOPE (4673) or (800) TLC-TEEN (852-8336), but this is a quick and convenient way to get help from our teen volunteers.

TEEN LINE has discontinued our online chat and Help by email services for the time being.
