Survivor Resources for Domestic & Sexual Violence, Stalking, Trafficking

Survivor Resources

As survivors and all those impacted know, domestic violence, sexual assault, and related forms of abuse have far-reaching effects, often intersecting with many different systems. This page is here to help you navigate that complexity. Because knowledge is power.

We've compiled trusted resources for domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and trafficking. Below, you’ll find 24/7 hotlines, links to legal and safety planning tools, and directories of local services. We’ve also included privacy and safety considerations to help you access information securely.

Registering for This Site: Privacy and Safety Considerations


Your safety and privacy matter. Please review these tips to help you navigate the registration process and make sure The Learning Community works for you.

Username

Choose any available username you wish. Your username doesn't need to have any connection to your actual name.

 

Name

For safety purposes, feel free to use initials or an alias. 

Note that the name you enter is the name that will display on any certificates of completion you may earn.

Email

An email address is required.  A couple of options if you do not wish to share your email address: You can create a one-time anonymous email at guerrillamail.com. Proton Mail offers permanent encrypted email accounts.

Why do we ask users to register? Registration allows users to save and track their progress and earn certificates of completion. It allows us to see which trainings are most and least popular and to track our impact, based on how many people are registering for the site and for the trainings we offer. Some offerings, like the Moving Ahead Financial Empowerment workbook and Seguir Adelante, offer users a "no registration" option. 

If you have additional questions or concerns, please email info@thelearningcommunitytoendviolence.org
