No. Almost all of our staff are confidential advocates. This means they are required by law to not share information about who worked with us or what they told us. We share information with specific permission from you. Only our counseling staff are mandatory reporters. Visit Counseling and Support Groups to learn more.

Yes. We can work with people in any language. Many of our staff are Spanish speaking. We also have staff who speak Russian, Farsi, and Arabic. If we don’t have someone who speaks your language, we’ll use an interpreter to make sure you are understood and have your needs met.

No. We know some youth trying to find help may be experiencing abuse by guardians or other adults in their lives, so we want them to feel safe asking for help. You get to decide what information you share with us–including your name and your age–when reaching out. Our advocates will actively work with you to identify safe adults in your life, and other community resources to help keep you safe.

We understand people may not wish to share very much information with us. You can share as much or as little with us as you’d like.

Relationships are complicated. Even if you’re not sure, we still want to talk with you. We know abuse can look and feel many different ways.

Yes. We know it can take people a long time to share their experience with someone else, especially if what they experienced was during childhood. Those experiences can have an impact on someone many years later.

As long as you want! We’re happy to support you for a short time if that’s what you need, or stay in touch with you as long as you want. Some people work with us just for a day to apply for a restraining order. Some people want to stay connected for many years.
