Emergency Support

Clear options when you need help now.

If you are in immediate danger

Contact local emergency services. In the United States, call 911 if it is safe to do so. For a life-threatening medical emergency, seek emergency medical care.

Rise & Recover is an educational website. It is not an emergency service, and this website is not monitored for crisis requests.

Domestic violence support in the United States

You can contact an advocate even if there has been no physical violence, you are unsure whether your experience is abuse, or you are not ready to leave.

National Domestic Violence Hotline

The Hotline offers support 24/7. An advocate can help you explore safety planning and local services. Message and data rates may apply.

Mental health crisis or emotional distress

You do not need to wait until distress becomes unbearable to reach out.

988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline

For people in the United States and its territories:

Crisis counselors offer support and referrals for suicidal crisis or emotional distress. For immediate physical danger or a life-threatening medical emergency, contact emergency services.

If you are outside the United States

The numbers above are U.S. resources. Contact your local emergency number, a local domestic violence organization, or a mental health crisis service in your country.

Choose a safer way to make contact

Calls, text messages, browser activity, and shared accounts may leave records. If you suspect monitoring, consider using a device the other person has not accessed. Ask the service about privacy and confidentiality limits before sharing identifying details when possible.

A Quick Exit link does not erase your browsing history or hide activity from monitoring software. Read safety planning guidance.

Helping someone else

Listen without demanding proof or pressuring them to leave. Ask what would help and whether it is safe to contact them. Avoid confronting the person causing harm. An advocate can help you think through ways to offer support.
