For some people, a little conversation can make a big difference. So, what if we told you that a meaningful connection was just a phone call away?

 

The RUOK and Reassurance Calls program matches people with trained personnel who connect with them regularly to check in, provide emotional support and suggest well-being resources and community connections to other existing services.

 

It’s not just about making a phone call — it’s about forming connections.
