The Warm Line presents an opportunity in Illinois for persons with mental health and substance use challenges and their families to receive support by phone. Peer and Family Support Specialists are professionals who have experienced mental health and substance use recovery in their own lives as an individual or family member. They have been trained in recovery support, mentoring, and advocacy and are ready to listen and help you. The warm line is not a crisis hotline, but is a source of support.
