Domestic Violence And Sexual Assault Hotlines
**If you are a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking please know that help is available.
Calling these appropriate Hotlines gives you access to a range of free services including:
While almost all callers are connected directly to a staff member or volunteer at a local service provider, a handful of providers use an answering service after daytime business hours. This service helps manage the flow of calls. If all staff members are busy, you may choose to leave a phone number with the answering service. In this case, the number will be confidential and will be given directly to the organization’s staff member for a callback. If you reach an answering service, you can try calling back after some time has passed, or you can choose to call during regular business hours when more staff members are available.
