"Working at Option Line is an adventure! The job is never the same one day to the next, and knowing that what we do here reaches people in more than 100 countries every month never stops amazing me. Sometimes the calls are funny, and sometimes they're heart-breaking, but my favorite kind of call is when we hear back from someone who wants to tell us about their new baby and thank us for being there when they needed help." ~Bri, Director of Option Line Operations, Option Line employee for 10 years |

| "Being a part of Option Line has been life-changing for me. After each shift, I feel a sense of purpose. There are always callers that I connect with, where I know the Holy Spirit is working through me. It is very humbling when the caller says 'Thank you,' or 'You have helped me so much.'"
