National Sexual Assault Hotline
1.800.656.HOPE(4673) is free, confidential and 24/7.
When
a caller dials 1.800.656.HOPE, a computer notes the
area code and first three digits of the caller's phone number.
The call is then instantaneously connected to the nearest
RAINN member center. If all counselors at that center
are busy, the call is sent to the next closest center.
The caller's phone number is not retained, so the call
is anonymous and confidential unless the caller chooses
to share personally-identifying information.
The Rape, Abuse & Incest
National Network (RAINN)
The nation's largest anti-sexual assault
organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault
Hotline and carries out programs to prevent sexual assault,
help victims and ensure that rapists are brought to justice. They also offer an online hotline (technology similar
to instant messaging) from 6 pm to 8 pm EST, Monday through
Friday.
Voices in Action - Adult and Adolescent Survivors of Sexual
Assault
An international organization providing assistance to adult
and adolescent victims of child sexual abuse and sexual trauma.
Their mission is to help victims become survivors and create
accurate public awareness of the prevalence of child sexual
abuse, its impact, and ways in which it can be prevented or
stopped through educational programs. |
