Your safety comes first. If you are injured or bleeding, or still in danger, call 911 or go directly to a hospital emergency room. See our on-line brochure, What To Do If You're Assaulted.
Call AVP's hotline at 212-714-1141. You can ask to speak with a male or female counselor, or Spanish- or English-speaking counselor.
If you're calling outside our office hours, you need to be at a phone where we can call you back. If it's not safe for us to call you where you are, go to a safe place such as a friend's place, all-night diner or hospital emergency room and call us from there.
You can call AVP's office at (212) 714-1184 from 10:00am to 8:00pm, Mon-Thurs, 10:00am to 6:00pm Friday (except major holidays) to speak with a staff counselor or schedule an appointment.
