Crisis & Suicide Support · Vermont · Free

International network of volunteer-led emotional support helplines across the world. Useful for trans, nonbinary, and questioning callers who need to be heard without explaining what their pronouns mean. Bilingual counselors are usually on shift; ask for one when the call connects. Trans crisis volume spikes around bathroom bills, election cycles, and family holidays — these lines staff up for surges. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
