Thank you for reaching out to the Women’s Center of New Bedford. We appreciate your care and support for the survivor in your life. Our services are available directly to survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault in the South Coast region of Massachusetts. While we cannot provide confidential services on someone’s behalf, we can:
Share information, resources, and safety planning tips with you.
Guide you on how to support the survivor in safe and respectful ways.
Provide our 24/7 hotline number so the survivor can contact us directly when they are ready.
If the survivor gives permission, connect them with counseling, advocacy, or shelter services.
Please let us know if you’d like resources for yourself as a supporter, or if you’d like us to provide referral information that you can share with the survivor. If the person you’re supporting is in immediate danger, please call 911 or our hotline at 508-999-6636
