Happy 20th Anniversary!


Since our phone lines went live in May 1989, Kids Help Phone’s professional counsellors have been providing help and hope to young people in your community. We’re celebrating 20 years of being there for kids!

Help Build our Virtual Mosaic!

Join us in celebrating this important milestone by helping us build our special 20th Anniversary Virtual Mosaic.
Post a photo and message online to show your support of our cause. Each photo will make up the mosaic and will eventually reveal a hidden picture that represents the important work we do.
For each image that you submit, your name will be entered in a draw for a special prize from one of our sponsors!

Visit our Mosaic website now and click on the big pink “Share With Us” button to get started.

On May 16, 1989, Kids Help Phone’s phone lines went live. Here is CityTV Toronto’s coverage of Kids Help Phone’s first day of service.

When Kids Help Phone’s lines opened in 1989, young people’s access to confidential, anonymous counselling was revolutionized. Kids began to reach out by the hundreds of thousands, and they haven’t stopped since.


Twenty years later Kids Help Phone has touched the lives of a generation of children and youth in Canada. Thanks to this remarkable relationship between young people and our counsellors, we continue to be a trusted source of support, information and hope for kids today.
A complete historical timeline is available here.

Now, more than ever, we need your help to ensure we can continue being there for kids. Kids who often have nowhere else to turn for safe and trustworthy help. When parents, schools and social services are unavailable, closed, backlogged or simply not accessible because of distance, Kids Help Phone is there.
With your support, our next 20 years will be as successful as the first.
