You Are Not Alone

Every Alaskan deserves to feel safe. If you are in need of immediate help or assistance, please call 911.
 
Domestic violence can happen to anyone, but it's important to remember that help is out there. If you are a victim, there are resources like shelters, hotlines, and counseling services that can provide the support you need to build a better future.
 
The National Domestic Violence Hotline provides 24/7 confidential support for survivors of domestic violence and their loved ones.
https://www.thehotline.org/
Hotline Number: Call 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)
 
Strong Hearts Native Helpline provides 24/7 confidential support to all American Indians and Alaska Natives impacted by domestic violence and/or sexual assault.
https://strongheartshelpline.org/
Hotline Number: 1-844-762-8483

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.

Additional resources including financial assistance can be found here. 

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.
