“Things were starting to get worse at home and I needed to talk to someone. So I called the hotine and they helped me make a safety plan and consider lots of different options I didn’t know I had.”

“I called the hotline from work after my coworker told a rape joke. I was overcome by emotions because of things that happened when I was young. Talking really helped. When the call ended, I was calm and able to get back to work.”
