Growing our reach through social media and outreach
Training comes first, and support is non-clinical
Everyone we select completes an online training programme before taking on any responsibilities. It covers supportive listening, the limits of the volunteer role, safeguarding, and what to do when a student needs more than we can give. You are never expected to give mental health treatment, and you will never be asked to.
The Soul Care is not a crisis intervention service and does not provide therapy, diagnosis, or emergency mental health care. Peer listening support is non-clinical and educational in nature. If you need professional help, please contact a licensed mental health professional, a hospital, or call the National Mental Health Helpline on 1926 (free, 24/7).
