Statewide Victim Services

Victim service programs around Alaska are listed below.
Most of them provide emergency shelter, and all provide safety planning and community-based advocacy to victims of domestic violence and of sexual assault. A person does not need to be a shelter resident in order to receive these services.

Even though most programs are located in hub communities, all provide services to rural communities in their service area. Click on the program name to access their website and learn about what services are offered and/or to connect with an advocate.

If you are in need of immediate help or assistance please call 911.
