Humans who want to be heard... and humans who want to listen

What is the Listening Line?

The Listening Line © is a place for folx to call and talk where they will be met with a non-medical, trained human who will hold space and witness the words of the caller without judgement. 

Who has access to a safe neutral place to talk?  Many times it's folx with insurance, telehealth, money or other means of privilege. By creating a training program in community and with community and training a large volunteer community, we hope to create access to listeners.

How was the Listening Line © created?
In 2019 A Sacred Passing held a one day conference, Une Bonne Mort ©, focusing on access, storytelling, and old/new thoughts in death care. During that time, six action groups were created to continue the work we started during the conference. Out of this developed this offering of community care support, in the form of a free phone line to cultivate access to companionship care.
