TheHopeLine was founded over 30 years ago by acclaimed youth speaker and radio host, Dawson McAllister.
What started out as a way to support listeners of the Dawson McAllister Live radio show has now become one of the world's premiere resources for students and young adults in crisis. In 2023 alone TheHopeLine received 1.2 million visits while completing 20,350 live chats and 2,325 suicide interventions.
We are a non-profit organization that provides free resources like live chat with Hope Coaches, email mentors, blog posts, podcasts, and eBooks because of donors who believe in our mission. We would love for you to join our team!
