Domestic Violence Hotlines and Resources


State Coalitions | National Organizations

The National Domestic Violence Hotline is staffed 24 hours a day by trained counselors who can provide crisis assistance and information about shelters, legal advocacy, health care centers, and counseling.

The Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network (RAINN) will automatically transfer you to the rape crisis center nearest you, anywhere in the nation. It can be used as a last resort if people cannot find a domestic violence shelter. 1-800-656-HOPE

Visit the U.S. Department of Justice Violence Against Women Office for information and resources, including government press releases and statements. Other shelter information can be found on our Sexual Assault Resources page.

For more information on domestic violence, see the Feminist Majority Foundation mediated list of Internet Resources on Violence Against Women.
