The Listening Ear Crisis Intervention Center
has been open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year since July 15, 1969.
We provide free and confidential service for telephone and walk-in
clients in crisis.
We define
crisis as "any situation in which your normal coping mechanisms are
ineffective or unavailable." Our volunteers are trained to
deal with crises that include depression, suicide, loneliness,
sexual assault, grief, and many others. We also provide
referrals for services throughout the
Lansing area. (The referral database will open in a new
window).
We have
an all-volunteer staff. Volunteers receive more than 65 hours
of training before ever picking up the phone. All director
and coordinator positions are filled by volunteers. Many staff
members choose to receive additional training in order to join our sexual
assault counseling staff or to become trainers themselves.

The 5th Annual d'Ear Trail 10k Race and 5k Walk was held Sunday, November 5, 2012. This year's run was at Lake
Lansing North Park amidst lovely fall colors. After the race, walkers, runners, dogs, kids and volunteers all
gathered around the wood burning stove to eat chili and enjoy each others company.
