The COVID-19 pandemic has presented unique challenges for domestic violence survivors, including intensified barriers to accessing critical tools and resources meant to support survivors and the organizations that support them. The National Domestic Violence Hotline has worked diligently to continue operations, specifically providing essential safety planning services for survivors while raising awareness and providing education on the unique circumstances facing survivors nationwide.
Join this conversation with the Hotline’s Chief Executive Officer Katie Ray-Jones and Commissioner Elizabeth Darling from the U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services (HHS) to learn more on the Hotline’s work to center survivors in COVID-19 and about the critical support of the CARES Act to allow for continued, ongoing support to survivors.
