Who We Are
The Certified Listeners Society is a non-profit organization based in Ontario, Canada. We are a dedicated community of volunteers professionally trained to provide accessible and free emotional support services through live chats. The CLS team is committed to actively identifying individuals in need and guiding them through emotional challenges offering guidance, empathy, and mental health resources.Â
In 2023, we provided close to 100,000 live chats to people across the world.Â
Who We Support
Individuals seeking help are connected with volunteers who are trained to offer judgment-free support and resources. All Certified Listeners undergo screenings and extensive training to ensure they possess the essential skills and knowledge for providing effective emotional support. Chats are monitored by volunteer supervisors to ensure equity, transparency, and confidentiality.Â
Our Mission
Provide emotional support to anyone who needs it.
We do not wait for individuals to come to us but rather go out of our way to find people online who need emotional support.
Our Vision
Bridge the gap between early intervention and mental health support.Â
By providing early intervention, we assist in the development of self-awareness in order to educate the masses to seek professional therapeutic services as a lifestyle choice to develop a healthy emotional well-being early on.
