A WARMLINE is staffed with Peer Specialists who can offer hope, strength, and knowledge gained from their own personal experiences living with mental health issues and/or substance use disorders.
There are over 150+ WARMLINES throughout the country! Each organization has different hours of operation, some only accept in-state calls while others operate nationwide and will take calls from anywhere. Most are English speaking but there are a growing number of organizations that offer non-English speaking services.
Until WARMLINE.ORG, there was no easy way to locate all of this information. With the database that we have built, you can easily locate WARMLINES that speak your language and that are OPEN NOW if you need someone to talk to.

Each organization has different hours of operation, some only accept in-state calls while others operate nationwide and will take calls from anywhere. Most are English speaking but there are a growing number of organizations that offer non-English speaking services.
Until WARMLINE.ORG, there was no easy way to locate all of this information. With the database that we have built, you can easily locate WARMLINES that speak your language and that are OPEN NOW if you need someone to talk to.

Each group is co-facilitated by two volunteers with lived experience of BPD. Facilitators are not licensed health care professionals and do not diagnose, counsel, or give advice.
COMMUNITY GUIDELINES
All participants agree to the following guidelines at registration:
- Your safety and well-being, as well as the safety of the group, is important to us.
- Use respectful language. Words and body language matter — be mindful of how others may interpret your communication.
- Differences are accepted and valued, especially with regard to gender, sexual orientation, identity, race, ethnicity, age, religion, and politics.
- Respect confidentiality. No photographs of other participants.
- Avoid making assumptions about others’ experience of BPD. No judgment.
- Show kindness and compassion for others who are struggling.
- All are welcome to share, but participation is optional. No one person should monopolize group time.
- Avoid interrupting, which can make other participants feel invalidated.
- Avoid explicit expressions of self-harm or trauma, which may be upsetting to others.
- If you express concerns about your safety, support will be offered. If emotions escalate and the group is unable to comfort you, you will be encouraged to reach out to your support system or consult with a mental health professional.
