A few safety precautions before connecting with us via WebChat –

Although web chat is encrypted, if your computer has been compromised, someone else could still see our chat conversation. If you have reason to believe your abuser has access to your computer and/or is checking it remotely, please find a safe, untampered-with computer for the chat, or call our phone support line from a safe phone.

If you need to quickly and safely leave the chat, click the “Quick Escape” button in the upper-left corner of this webpage. Pressing this button will immediately end your WebChat session and send you to an alternate website.

If you are sure you are connecting from a safe computer and you’re ready to chat with an advocate, you can start doing so in the box to the right –
