- On the hotline, I would take calls during my shift, helping people with current issues they are facing using short-term counseling techniques. The calls we received ranged from helping with basic needs (housing, food, and bills) to more crisis-related calls involving client's mental health and personal situations they were going through.
- Mentored new volunteers who were in training to become volunteers and helped foster a supportive and inclusive team environment.
