Feeling stressed? Look to the Peer Support Line for assistance

This resource is available to provide answers, resources, and empathetic support when it is needed most.


The holidays should be a time for joy, laughter, and spending time with loved ones. However, this time of the year can also bring about feelings of stress and anxiety.

Perhaps you have an older loved one in need of care? Maybe an unexpected hospitalization has occurred recently and you need some assistance? Is work-related stress causing you anxiety and anguish?


When it comes to your mental well-being, the Peer Support Line is available to provide answers, resources, and empathetic support when you need it.

Created through a partnership between NYSUT Social Services, NYSUT Member Benefits, and Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care, this confidential helpline is staffed by trained in-service and retired individuals who understand the unique challenges of NYSUT members.
