National Domestic Violence Hotline

The National Domestic Violence Hotline is a 24-hour, confidential, toll-free hotline created through the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) in the United States. Hotline staff immediately connect the caller to a service provider in his or her area. Highly trained advocates provide support, information, referrals, safety planning, and crisis intervention in 170 languages to hundreds of thousands of domestic violence victims. As of October 2013, the hotline offers services via online chat during selected hours of the day. This livechat service has been said to break down some of the barriers victims of domestic violence face through its anonymity. Users whose abusers might monitor internet history are encouraged to call via a friend or family member's phone or an alternate computer to protect their privacy and safety, however.

Since opening in 1996, the National Domestic Violence Hotline has received over 3 million calls and averages 22,000 calls a month. More than 60% of callers report that this is their first call for help.
