Nightline's mission is to improve the mental health of young people and students, both individually and collectively. To achieve this, the association informs, trains and equips: it promotes good mental health and encourages individual resilience.

of students are considering stopping their studies because of psychological problems, i.e. over a third of them (Baromètre santé mentale des étudiants, 2025)

Solution

Today in France, nearly one young person in four suffers from depression*

and nearly one in two feels alone.**

Nightline takes action every day to improve the mental health of young people.

To act on an individual and collective scale, the association relies on peer support, an approach recognized for its effectiveness by the WHO. With the commitment of 400 young volunteers, accompanied by psychologists, we create listening, mutual aid and prevention spaces for young people.

Why we love it?

Nightline provides a concrete and effective solution to the still little-addressed problem of student⸱e⸱s mental health.

My involvement is extremely gratifying. I feel useful in providing support to students (...) In my volunteer work, I have also developed valuable skills that will serve me well in both my personal and professional life. Nightline has enabled me to improve my skills in project creation and management, in supervising and guiding a group of volunteers, as well as my ability to express myself by delivering a clear message in front of an audience or the media. Nightline places the work of its volunteers at the heart of all its activities. But what makes this volunteer experience even more enriching is that the association allows volunteers to be accompanied by professional staff.
