• Lignes d'écoute et d'aide dans le Grand Montréal
  Many community organizations in Quebec offer free, anonymous and confidential listening services by telephone. Help lines aim to break isolation by allowing people to confide in and share a particular psychological state. Some crisis lines are general, that is to say that the organization is not specialized in a particular area and responds to all listening requests, while other telephone crisis services are aimed only a clientele (young people, seniors, LGBTQ, etc.) or a particular subject (mental health, bereavement, addictions, etc.).

• Services d’écoute  (Le Portail de la Prévention  du Suicide)
  When certain life situations become difficult and one no longer knows how to deal with them, hotlines can be a relatively easy first step to take. They guarantee to any caller in a state of psychological crisis an attentive listening, a response and, if necessary, an orientation which responds as best as possible to the situation or the difficulties which motivated the call. The anonymity of the caller and listener is the fundamental rule of their operation.
