National Domestic Violence Hotline to air on Oprah

NDVH Hotline 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) TTY Number: 1-800-787-3224

Watch Oprah today to see an interview with Sheryl Cates, the executive director of the National Domestic Violence Hotline. According to Ms. Cates "the show includes an interview with a woman who was burned by her husband at a T-mobile store in Maryland. She had filed for a protective order, and the legal system basically failed her."

Nationwide, domestic violence programs are expecting an increased demand for services. We are letting our volunteers know in the groups, forums and locally on our hotline.

Volunteers and staff across the US are willing to help and we care. If you've thought of getting information about domestic violence go ahead and call or email. We're always glad to help.
