Episode Notes

In this week’s podcast we continue our introduction to Distress and Crisis Ontario by providing some information on the Ontario Online Text Crisis Service, or ONTX Program. Cindy, our ONTX Coordinator, talks with Caitlin about what the program is, who it’s for, how to access it, and more. We also have a short interview with Tia, an ONTX volunteer responder, to learn a little bit about why volunteering is important and how it can be beneficial to give your time to a distress/crisis line. If you would like to access the ONTX program it currently operates from 2:00 PM – 2:00 AM daily and can be reached VIA text by sending SUPPORT to 258258, or by visiting our website at dcontario.org and clicking the “chat now” link on the right-hand side of the screen.
