About HeartLine's 24/7 CareLine
Whether the problem is depression, grief, loneliness or anxiety, someone at HeartLine's CareLine is here to help. Trained Call Specialists help callers identify and express their feelings and offer non-judgmental support.
HeartLine's Call Specialists touch the lives of people in crisis and give them hope. Twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year, HeartLine's CareLine is there for the people of Central Oklahoma. 848-2273 (CARE) is the number to call for help.
HeartLine's CareLine Call Specialists are caring and empathic, and they understand the need for a non-judgmental ear during difficult times. Although highly trained, Call Specialists are not therapists. Call Specialists have access to information for referrals to local mental health services, if requested.
