I By USCHI MICHEL-HOWELL Battalion Staff ghted the Deit I Th e Brazos Valley Crisis Prevention Hotline, servicing the Bryan- ake Reagan into f°^ e 8 e Station area, is still helping people overcome problems, un , lt ( u ; r although it has changed its sponsor and telephone number. i. r I As of Monday, Crisis Hotline’s new sponsor is Greenleaf Psychiatric o mg or morel r en t e rlnc., located in Bryan. It was formerly sponsored by the Brazos weeks. plley Mental Health Mental Retardation Center. I Crisis Hotline is manned by volunteers who “are concerned with helping people,” coordinator Mary Orndorff said. I “Last year funds were cut by the Texas Department of Community Diction, ” said Dr. Russell Dunckley, director of the MHMR-sponsored |Crisis Hotline. Consequently, the service s sponsorship had to be ransferred to Greenleaf Psychiatric Center and the Brazos Valley Community Action Agency, he added. ; The Drug Abuse Prevention Division of the National Institute for |)rug Abuse had given MHMR a grant which made the opening of a liotline possible in 1978, Dunckley said. I Services offered by Crisis Hotline include information referral and a friendly ear for problems of any kind. I Caller’s concerns range from problems with being away from home for j suicide attempts, Orndorff said, ‘‘and we try to efer people to the proper services or talk to them. ’ “We don’t advertise having a ‘big ear’, but that’s what we do most of jhe time,” a volunteer said. Callers are limited to 15 minutes, before they are asked to terminate the call, he said. All possible options are explained to callers, but no single one is advocated, he said. ’ The most crucial hours are between 6p.m. and 2 a. m., but there are ( hot enough volunteers available for those hours. The phone is manned every day between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m., Orndorff said. Service during jjther hours is discontinuous and volunteers try to answer the phone as much as they can. | ! Volunteers are needed all the time and can contact Crisis Hotline at its phone number 775—3708. The Crisis Hotline’s mailing address is 413 Varisco Building, Bryan, Texas 77801.
