What the Friendship Line Offers

The Friendship Line was created to challenge the idea that aging means isolation, and to provide warm, personal advice without bureaucratic restraints. We offer connection to those who need emotional support and welcome them into our extended community.

  • 24/7 Toll-Free Emotional Support for older adults and adults with disabilities

  • Friendly conversation, active listening, and compassionate care for caregivers seeking support in California and beyond

  • Crisis intervention and suicide prevention

  • Grief support if you’re experiencing loss

  • Ongoing outreach calls to individuals who request regular check-ins

Every call is answered by a trained team member – whether it’s 2 p.m. or 2 a.m. We’re here because we know connection saves lives.

Who We Serve: Seniors, Adults with Disabilities, and Caregivers in California

  • Adults age 60+

  • Adults living with disabilities of any age

  • Caregivers seeking emotional support and guidance
