Frequently Asked Questions
Who do you help?
We help anyone who is a victim/survivor of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, dating violence, or sex trafficking. Domestic violence does not discriminate, and we don’t either. Anyone can be a victim/survivor. We help people from all cultures, race and gender. We help those who are English speaking and those who are limited English proficient, by communicating with them in their preferred language.
Am I in an Abusive Relationship?
It may be hard to tell if what you are experiencing is abusive behavior. Abusive is defined as a pattern of behavior where one person leverages control over another in an intimate partner relationship. For more information click below.
