Teen Lifeline is a brand that has been dedicated to providing crucial crisis intervention services for Arizona teens since 1986. Their mission is to prevent teen suicide by enhancing resiliency in youth and fostering supportive communities. They offer a peer-to-peer crisis hotline, where trained, volunteer peer counselors aged 15-19 are available 24/7/365 to answer calls and texts regarding thoughts of suicide, depression, anxiety, grades, and friend/family issues.

In 2020 alone, the hotline received 34,800 calls and texts, a significant increase from the previous year. The impact of these calls is substantial, with 87% of callers reporting positive outcomes and 95% feeling better and more hopeful for the future after speaking with a teen peer counselor. Teen Lifeline also focuses on prevention education through classroom workshops, training for school personnel, and community awareness programs.

Their dedicated teen volunteers receive extensive life skills development training and contribute over 19,000 hours of service annually. By connecting Arizona youth to hope, Teen Lifeline plays a vital role in saving lives and creating stronger, supportive communities
