"About Us"
Distress Centres (DC's) across Ontario offer support and a variety of services to their communities. At a DC you can find a listening ear for people feeling lonely, depressed, and/or suicidal, usually 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Many centres also have Suicide Survivor programs, support services for youth, telephone call out programs for seniors and vulnerable people, mental health Crisis Lines services and much more.
