If you are in danger right now
Call 911. For guidance and support in situations of gender-based violence, you can contact Line 144, free of charge, 24 hours a day.
Violence within the family can take many forms: physical, psychological, economic, sexual. Sometimes it leaves no visible marks, but it affects the safety and peace of the whole household. No one should have to endure it.
The law allows you to request fast protection orders, such as removing the abuser from the home or a restraining order. These measures can be requested when you make your report.
Our team listens to you with respect and complete discretion, explains your options and supports you at every step, at whatever pace you need. Your safety and your children’s safety come first.
When should you seek help?
- You are subjected to physical attacks, insults, threats or humiliation.
- Someone controls your money, your phone or who you see.
