Juvenile Justice Support Line
Toll-free: 1-888-558-3203
7 days a week, 24 hours a day

The line is staffed by Family Peer Advocates from the Advocacy Alliance. Family Peer Advocates are family members of children involved in the community mental health system and they are specially trained to listen and help families and children disaffected by the juvenile justice system scandal in Luzerne County. If a Family Peer Advocate is not available, the caller may leave a message to receive a return call at a time most convenient to the caller. All calls are treated as CONFIDENTIAL and the caller will not be expected to leave their name. All calls will be handled with respect and understanding. The PA Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services funds the support line.
