About the Hotline

About the Hotline

About the Hotline

Welcome to the Sexual Assault Hotline.

When you have experienced a sexual assault, you may want to talk with someone. Somehow who will listen without judgment. We are here to listen. The hotline is here to give support to you. Someone is available to speak with you 24/7.

The hotline is confidential. This means that we will not share your information. It is also anonymous. This means you share as much or as little about your identity as you see fit. The information that you share with us, stays with us. If your experience of sexual violence was 4 hours ago or 40 years ago, we are available to listen to you. We offer immediate crisis counseling, and referrals regardless of your identity.
