Kids Help Phone has been showing up for young people in distress for over 30 years. You can too.
Show up for youth. Show up to walk so kids can talk.
On Sunday, May 3, walk to support Kids Help Phone so we can continue to innovate our services to reach more young people than ever before.
Young people can talk to us about any concerns they have; sometimes, we are the first or only place they can turn to for help. Walk to ensure young people get the help they need 24/7.
