Social Work Access Line

This service is open to any student or family of DCDSB who is in need of urgent social work support.  Students and families can call the Social Work Access Line and leave a voicemail with their contact information.  A Social Worker will call back to discuss the concern.  The Social Worker will use a ‘single session’ approach to assist the caller with their concern.  If additional support is needed, the Social Worker can arrange for additional services available through DCDSB, or inform the caller about supports in the community that may be helpful. 

 Please note: This is not a crisis line and will not be monitored 24/7.  If you are experiencing a mental health crisis and need immediate crisis support, please call Durham Crisis Line at 1-800-742-1890 or go to your nearest emergency room.
