When you call our hotline, you will be connected with a trained advocate.

• Calls made to our 24-hour confidential hotline 1-603-994-SAFE (7233) Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., are answered by a trained advocate who will speak with  you about your situation and your safety.

• Calls made to our hotline at night and on the weekends will be picked up by our answering service. The answering service will ask:

    1. If you would like to speak with an advocate
    2. Your first name
    3. A phone number that you can be reached at
    4. If it is safe to leave a message
