SUPPORT · SAFETY · COMPASSION

You don't have to face this alone.

If you are experiencing domestic violence or are concerned about someone you love, Satnam Rising welcomes you to reach out. You can ask questions, discuss your situation, and learn about support and community resources.

In immediate danger?

Call 911 for emergency assistance.


Our phone number is a helpline, not a 24-hour crisis hotline. Please do not rely on it for emergency response.

WHAT TO EXPECT

What happens when you contact us

We understand that reaching out can be difficult. Our goal is to listen, understand your needs, and help you explore available options while respecting your choices.

1. Call or leave a message

An on-call clinician may answer, or you may be asked to leave your name, number, a brief message, and a suitable time for a return call. The existing helpline information states that messages are returned within 24 hours.

2. Talk about your needs

A clinician can complete an intake conversation, offer emotional support and resources, and refer the matter to a caseworker when appropriate.

3. Explore support options

The team will do its best to match you with someone who speaks a language you are comfortable using. Depending on availability and your needs, further discussion may be possible in person or by email.

4. Make your own choices

Satnam Rising describes its counseling and referral services as free and emphasizes an empowerment approach. You decide what information to share and what steps feel right for you.

A NOTE ON PRIVACY

Reach out in a way that's safe for you.

If someone else can access your phone, voicemail, or email, consider that before contacting us. Please avoid including sensitive personal details in an email if your account or device is not private.
