Support our 24/7 Crisis Hotline

WE HAVE ALMOST REACHED OUR GOAL!

 

StrengthUnited's commitment to supporting survivors of violence and trauma has never wavered. As frontline providers of critical care for survivors of Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Child Abuse, we have had to make urgent and transformational changes to the way we provide services. Our dedicated staff has been working quickly and effectively to transition our services to remote methods, including videoconferences for groups, and telehealth check-ins, crisis intervention and crisis counseling, as well as advocacy, case-management, and linkages to resources.

#srongertogether #strongerthanever #strengthunitedOne client told us how grateful she is to have the continued support of her group that is now meeting by teleconference. It gives her a safe place to share concerns and get advice and solidarity from other parents who are facing the same challenges. We are not going through this alone.

We know that the added stress and isolation from the COVID-19 crisis can make everyday situations challenging for all adults, children, and families, and can particularly create increased anxiety and risk for trauma survivors. So we are still here with them, and with you, providing trusted support around the clock.

DONATE today to Support our Hotline operations: Our Hotline staff have undergone extensive training in order to effectively help people at the most vulnerable times in their lives. We continue to increase and expand our services as this becomes an ever-more essential lifeline for our community.

Spread the word: Let your community know that our trained Hotline staff are available 24-hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide support and resources for those who have experienced sexual assault, domestic violence, or child abuse, as well as those experiencing anxiety related to COVID-19. We believe no one should be alone in a moment of crisis, no matter when it occurs:

San Fernando Valley (818) 886-0453

Santa Clarita Valley (661) 253-0258

(Los servicios también están disponibles en español.)

Thank you for standing with us as we stand for Survivors.  In these challenging times, we are truly seeing that we are stronger together, and that every person's health is intertwined. Be safe and well!
