Children's helplines worldwide

This is a list of helplines provided by the organisation Child Helpline International (CHI). They have a global portal for children listing all the telephone numbers in the world that you can call if something's wrong and you need to talk to someone. 

The person you speak to will help you sort out your problem, and they won't tell anyone unless you want them to.
