If You Are in Danger

  • Call 911,

  • Call a national hotline.
  • Remember that "corded" phones are more private and less interceptable than cordless phones or analog cell phones.
  • Be aware you may not be able to reach 911 using an Internet phone or Internet-based phone service. So you may need to be prepared to use another phone to call 911.
  • Contact your local domestic violence program or shelter to learn about free cell phone donation programs.
