YOU ARE NOT ALONE
Do you feel sad, lonely, hopeless, or suicidal? We’re here to listen to you, 24 hours a day.
Samaritans works to prevent suicide and support those who have lost someone to suicide. Each year, 300+ volunteers answer more than 75,000 calls and text messages on our Helpline.
If you need to talk to someone about how you’re feeling, grieve the loss of a loved one to suicide, or learn how to help others in crisis, you can find support with us.

OUR SERVICES
Samaritans provides life saving suicide prevention services throughout Greater Boston, MetroWest, and across Massachusetts. Our services are free, confidential, and nonjudgmental.
“Thank you to Samaritans for saving lives. I am so grateful and wanted you to know what a difference you truly make.”
“Going to SafePlace is my life support. We have a common denominator — we can be there for each other.”
“This workshop opened my eyes to the fact that students want to be heard — but often we must ask and be direct about it.”
