NEO Teen Helpline, Inc. was established in 1990 as a program
of CONTACT Ashtabula County, Inc., the local crisis hotline.
The first training class started in February 1990 and the first
phone call was received in June 1990. Since then there has been
over 25,000 telephone calls placed to our 800 number (1-800-272-TEEN).
Originally our service area was restricted to Ohio and Pennsylvania.
In 1998 our service area was expanded to include all of the
U.S. and Canada.
NEO Teen Helpline, Inc. was spun off from CONTACT Ashtabula
County as an independent not for profit corporation in February
1996. A Board of Trustees governs us.
