Lesbian Gay Bi Trans Youth Line Ontario, Canada

At YouthLine, all our HelpLine volunteers are trained peer supporters aged 16-29, coming from a diversity of 2SLGBTQ+ identities and lived experiences. We serve all of Ontario.

We’re not counsellors, we’re peers who can relate, and we have been trained in active listening and relevant knowledge such as anti-oppression, anti-racism, sex and consent, STIs, HIV, self-care, and more. Some common things people call, text, or chat us to talk about include:

• Questioning gender identity and/or sexual orientation
• Coming out
• Mental health
• Relationships with friends, partners, and family
• Feeling socially isolated
• Seeking referrals to resources and supports online and in your community
• Just to chat
