Mission Statement
The National Domestic Violence Hotline offers free, confidential support and services 24/7 through phone, chat or text to anyone affected by domestic violence and relationship abuse. We envision a world where all relationships are positive, healthy and free from violence.
About This Cause
We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to speak confidentially with victims, survivors, friends and family affected by abuse. We offer crisis intervention, immediate support, safety planning and more to all callers, chatters and texters. With the help of our compassionate, highly trained advocates and our cutting-edge digital services, we work every day to engage with individuals and communities across the country to spread awareness and education about domestic violence and abuse. Additionally, loveisrespect, a project of the National Domestic Violence Hotline, is the ultimate resource for fostering healthy dating attitudes and relationships among teens and young people. Loveisrespect offers phone, live chat, and text services ("loveis" to 22522) 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men aged 18 and older in the United States have been the victim of severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime. 1 in 3 adolescents in the US is a victim of physical, sexual, emotional or verbal abuse from a dating partner. Every day, 24/7, our advocates at The Hotline and loveisrespect are here to answer these calls, chats and texts from people whose lives are affected by domestic violence. It takes immense bravery to reach out for help. We hope that we can count on you to ensure that when a survivor is ready to speak, someone at The Hotline is here to listen. These are real life examples of what we hear every day: • A 14-year-old girl chatted from school to get resources for her mom because her dad monitors their home computer. • A woman who'd never heard of economic abuse decided to set up a separate bank account and leave her abusive relationship in two months after being sent resources for financial independence. • A teenage boy called because his sister was being stalked by her ex-partner (constant texts, coming by their house uninvited, harassing phone calls). The advocate helped him to create a plan for gathering evidence to help her file for a protective order when she was ready. • A woman chatted to find resources so she could leave her abusive husband and go to her family across the country. She has three kids, two are teenagers. Her husband is in law enforcement and his family is in law enforcement in the several nearby counties; as a result, she has never been able to file a police report.
