About THRIVE Lifeline

Thriving Harnesses Respect, Inclusion, and Vested Empathy: A crisis text line staffed by people in STEMM with marginalized identities. THRIVE Lifeline is a 501(c)(3) grassroots organization dedicated to changing the landscape of mental health support for people with intersecting marginalized identities. Among our services, we offer a free text-based crisis line. We are led by experienced crisis managers who are fed up with watching our communities fall prey to systemic marginalization only to face dismissive, unsupportive, and sometimes dangerous interactions through traditional mental health avenues. Since opening in June 2020 we have served texters in all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. We take a different approach. When you text THRIVE Lifeline, you can rest assured that our goal is to create the space you need to feel heard, valued, and uplifted. YOU, not your crisis, are at the center of our conversation. As a 988 alternative, we do not engage in non-consensual active rescue and want to respect your own decisions and autonomy. For our full policies, click here. Our Crisis Responders all have at least one marginalized identity and are rigorously trained using our proprietary curriculum, taught by and for people with intersecting marginalized identities. We hope that when you reach out to THRIVE you will talk to someone who gets it.
