Will you answer the call?

Every 90 seconds a young person reaches out to Kids Helpline – but what if no one answered?


Archie, now a Kids Helpline counsellor, can relate to feeling alone as a young person.


“I often encountered experiences of feeling like there was nobody to talk to when I had challenging thoughts or big emotions. I remember calling Kids Helpline on a particularly overwhelming day. Being listened to, having someone take time to understand what I was sharing, without judgement, and being reminded that I was not alone – it was a powerful encounter that changed my view on the world.”
