Lifewise NL provides mental health peer support to the people of Newfoundland and Labrador.
In May, they announced a pilot project in conjunction with the Provincial Government for first responders. This first responder warm line will be accessible from 12:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. 7 days a week. The lines will be staffed by first responders who are trained in peer support and have their own experiences of mental health and addictions.
While Lifewise NL has a number of peer support options, this warm line will be specifically for first responders.
The number for the first responder warm line is: 1-709-237-4180.
NTV’s Marykate O’Neill will have more tonight on the NTV Evening Newshour.
