ContactLifeline

ContactLifeline is a non-profit organization providing crisis services and sexual assault counseling.

The 24/7 Crisis Helpline for Delaware receives calls regarding many levels of crisis, from asking for information and referral, to discussing daily struggles, to processing suicidal thoughts.

Along with single occurring crises, the Crisis Helpline serves as a support system for individuals who need a little extra support to get through the day. This may include individuals who are elderly, are living with mental illness, have a developmental delay, or are feeling lonely.

ContactLifeline also offers Crisis Chat, which is the same service, but in an instant messaging format.

For survivors of a sexual assault, regardless of whether it just happened or happened many years ago, ContactLifeline offers the following assistance:

  • Telephone counseling
  • Information and referral
  • In-person support and advocacy at hospitals, police stations, and courts
  • Individual counseling for survivor, family and friends
