EveryMind (formerly The Montgomery County Hotline) is seeking interested students for internship and volunteer opportunities. The MC Hotline is a 24-hour, 7 day a week service that provides telephone supportive listening, facilitation of problem solving, crisis intervention, suicide prevention, and information and resources to Montgomery County residents and concerned friends and family. Trained volunteers and interns answer calls for the Montgomery County Hotline, Youth Crisis Hotline, and National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Text and chat opportunities are also available. The Hotline works closely with the Montgomery County Crisis Center as part of a continuum of services to Montgomery County residents.
Volunteers and interns are required to attend a training that is accredited by the American Association of Suicidology. A time commitment is required.
The Hotline is a great way to gain experience in the helping field and give back to the community. Make a difference in your life and the lives of others!
The next training will begin July 11th and end on August 24th.
For more information and to receive an application please email hotline@every-mind.org or call Victoria Layfield at (301) 424-0656 ext.516.
