History

The CALL is a collaboration between the New Mexico Department of Health Office of School and Adolescent Health and NMSU’s Wellness Alcohol and Violence Education program (WAVE). Prior to the CALL there were two crisis lines in northern New Mexico, Agora (Albuquerque) and Crisis Response of Santa Fe. Planning for the CALL began in Spring 2008 when the Department of Health asked NMSU to be a site for a crisis line in southern New Mexico. After only 8 months of planning, the Crisis Assistance Listening Line began operations on August 21st, 2008.
