Compassionate advocates can assist you with immediate support and safety planning for those in danger or at risk, as well as information and referrals. The Spanish and English hotlines are two of the few in the Bay Area that provide 24-hour intake to help those in danger access emergency shelter.  They can also help with finding support groups, counseling, and legal advocacy.

Qualified interpreter services, including sign language, are available at no cost.  We do not encourage the use of family, friends or minors as interpreters. Only the services of qualified staff and interpreters are used to provide language assistance. These may include bilingual staff, or Language Line interpreters. In-person, telephone,  and alternative modes of communication are available.
