Services Offered

24 Hour Helpline: 860-225-6357 or 888-774-2900
The Helpline is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and provides callers with immediate access to Certified Domestic Violence Counselors and our emergency shelter services. In addition to calls when there is a crisis, people are also encouraged to call for general information about domestic violence and how and when to refer someone for services. Spanish-speaking counselors and multi-lingual translation services are available.

Individual & Group Counseling
We provide counseling to people living in the community who have experienced domestic violence and are seeking supportive counseling and information about a current or prior relationship. Services are geared toward improving safety, self-esteem, and self-sufficiency, and helping people find alternatives to the violence in their lives. For convenience, services are available in New Britain and in Bristol. Support groups for children are offered at the same time as the adult support group sessions. Call the 24 Hour Helpline to talk about this service option.

Children's Services
Specially trained child advocates work with the children and youth in our programs who have been exposed to domestic violence as they learn to rebuild trust, be safe, develop coping skills, and become resilient. We connect the family to community services, resources in schools and work to strengthen parent/child bonds, so that the children can heal, thrive, and reach their full potential in all areas of their lives. Support groups are offered for children in our residential programs and also for the children of people attending our community support groups.
