Story

National Domestic Violence Hotline Advocates have heard from thousands of survivors about how abusive partners are using the stress, isolation, and financial strain of COVID-19 to further control and abuse. Even when the immediate threat of this virus is over, the long-term effects on survivors' health, safety, and financial security must be a priority. The Hotline will be there every step of the way with emotional support, customized safety planning, and referrals to local resources. Please help me build a path to safety for survivors across the United States by making a gift today. As a recent caller said about The Hotline, "You have been so helpful! I am so thankful this service exists. I truly believe it saved my life. I called The Hotline when I first left my abuser. It was the first of many steps I took to get free." Calls and chats to The Hotline were up 12% last quarter and the need is growing. Thank you for supporting me in making a difference!
