Support by Location
Emergency numbers and services differ by country. Here is what applies in the United States, and how to find help elsewhere.
In the United States
In an emergency, call 911. For confidential support any time, day or night:
- National Domestic Violence Hotline: call 800-799-7233, text START to 88788, or visit thehotline.org (opens in new tab). Advocates can also help you find shelters and services near you.
- National Sexual Assault Hotline (RAINN): call 800-656-4673, text HOPE to 64673, or visit rainn.org (opens in new tab).
- 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: call or text 988, or visit 988lifeline.org (opens in new tab).
These hotlines are independent national services. Brighter Bolder Beginnings does not operate them.
Outside the United States
Please contact your local emergency number if you are in immediate danger. We are preparing a directory of verified organizations in other countries and will only list services after verification.
