Connect & Breathe will be holding training sessions for new talkline volunteers this January 2025.

Attendance at all training meetings will be necessary to ensure that you're fully ready to respond to talkline calls. Participating in the training allows for community building among participants as well as opportunities to take part in and learn from enrichment activities, guest speakers, and role plays.
The training is offered free of charge by a licensed clinical psychologist and a seasoned talkline volunteer counselor. We strive to make training informative and fun, and we hope you'll want to take part!
