Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the 24-Hour Hotline has remained staffed around the clock to provide a critical lifeline for those without a place to turn or someone to talk to.
Help build awareness
The social distancing and isolation required to limit the outbreak has put those experiencing domestic and sexual violence at greater danger, as many have been trapped at home with their abuser. This has also made it much harder for victims to call our 24-Hour Hotline and reach out for help.
Now that the Safer at Home is lifted, we want to make sure that anyone who has experienced or continues to experience violence knows how to reach us to be connected to our life-saving and life-changing services.
