Everyday in the US, more than three women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends.
Nearly 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men have experienced domestic violence ¹
YWCA of Richmond, Hanover Safe Place, Safe Harbor, The James House and Project Hope at Quin Rivers have come together with the financial support of The Jenkins Foundation to create a new 24 hour crisis hotline for survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
Greater Richmond Regional Hotline Collaborative (GRRHC) allows each of the five domestic and sexual violence agencies to streamline the call process and provide multiple levels of service with just one phone call. The 24 hour crisis hotline is staffed with trained professionals and volunteers who’s first priority upon taking a call is to determine the caller’s level of danger and respond to all immediate safety needs.
The Greater Richmond Regional Hotline: 804-612-6126, serves survivors and their loved ones who need support navigating domestic, intimate partner, family, and/or sexual violence in Chesterfield, Richmond, Hanover, Henrico, Powhatan, Goochland, the Tri-Cities, King William, King and Queen, New Kent and Charles City.
If you believe you or a loved one has experienced domestic, intimate partner, or sexual violence, please call the Greater Richmond Regional Hotline. All calls are confidential.
