24-hour Crisis Line

The 24-hour Crisis Line is a program of Crisis Support Services of Alameda County. Trained crisis intervention counselors are available to receive crisis calls and give supportive counseling 24 hours a day, every day. Translation is available in more than 140 languages. They also offer teletype (TDD) services for deaf and hearing-impaired individuals.

Crisis Support Services of Alameda County is not in the business of imposing belief systems, solving problems, giving advice, or arguing people out of a wish to die. Our goal is to foster the life-affirming part of each caller and to help maintain or improve quality of life. This can best be achieved through non-judgmental, caring crisis intervention counseling in which callers are encouraged to take as much responsibility for their lives as possible.

To apply, please email your cover letter and resume to careers@crisissupport.org. Make Crisis Line On-Call Supervisor the subject name. Applications are open until positions are filled.
