One of the many challenges that women's shelters face is the difficulty in getting people in need to contact a resource for help. Although the SOS Violence Conjugale telephone number and affiliated organizations are widely publicized and awareness of violence against women is constantly growing, some people remain reluctant and hesitate to take action to get help.
A chat platform available 7 day a week, where people can initiate a discussion with a qualified counsellor in complete confidentiality and free of charge. An additional tool to encourage people who feel concerned by a situation of domestic violence to take action and reach out to a help resource. Spread the word in your network!
