Why Volunteer?

Whatever your interests or experience, your local crisis centre will train, mentor and support you to becoming a skilled crisis responder. Some reasons people volunteer:

An opportunity to provide support to people in need in my community

The chance to be the difference for someone thinking of suicide

A chance to learn valuable communication and life skills

A personal growth opportunity

To gain experience towards a career in counseling and mental health

To join a caring and compassionate community

Please note that Crisis Services Canada is currently not directly accepting any volunteer applications.
