MISSION - WHAT WE DO

The National Domestic Violence Hotline answers the call to support and shift power back to those affected by relationship abuse.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

One in 4 women, 1 in 7 men and 1 in 3 teens will be affected by relationship abuse and violence in their lifetime. Every day The Hotline receives nearly 1,200 calls, chats and texts for help and support from people who are affected by domestic violence and dating abuse. We envision a world where all relationships are positive, healthy and free from violence. Until that is a reality, the National Domestic Violence Hotline will work tirelessly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to answer the call to support and shift power back to anyone affected by relationship abuse.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Loveisrespect In 2011 we launched loveisrespect, a project of the National Domestic Violence Hotline. Loveisrespect is the ultimate resource to engage, educate and empower youth and young adults to prevent and end abusive relationships. In light of startling statistics indicating that abuse patterns start when first relationships are being formed in the adolescent years, we knew that early intervention was critical to preventing future patterns of domestic violence. In addition to the offering a helpline designed to meet the specific needs of teens, and being the country's most comprehensive source of information on dating abuse and healthy relationships, Loveisrespect also mobilizes parents, educators, peers and victims to proactively raise awareness about healthy dating behaviors and how to identify unhealthy and abusive patterns. Loveisrespect offers 24/7 phone services, chat services at loveisrespect.org, and SMS text services ("loveis" to 22522). Website: www.loveisrespect.org Twitter: www.twitter.com/loveisrespect
