Desperation is a plea that falls onto the deaf ears of a society buried in its apathy and indifference. Faced with an unbreakable addiction, an unplanned pregnancy, sexual abuse or an HIV positive verdict, one not only needs the truth and sensible advice, but someone who will simply listen. A 24-hour DFL Helpline offers sound guidance by counsellors who have often experienced and overcome these insurmountable crises.
Doctors for Life offers 24-hour Helplines for those abused, addicted or hurting. South African Television has aired several NPSA (National Public Service Announcement) Adverts, promoting our Counselling Helplines. Issues covered are: AIDS, Drug Abuse and Child Abuse. Hundreds have been helped through this service.
