Avalon’s team of trained advocates are available to confidentially talk 24-hours a day, seven days a week to anyone:
- experiencing interpersonal violence
- in need of crisis intervention for immediate threats
- in need of emergency shelter
- seeking information and resources on interpersonal violence, strategies for safety, and more
- questioning the health of their relationship
This Helpline allows Avalon to provide those in need with immediate tools and support to empower survivors to move toward safety, self-sufficiency and lives free from abuse. Those who are hard of hearing or deaf can dial 711 on their phone for telecommunications relay services. With the use of a language line, advocates are able to communicate in more than 100 languages.
