Hi everyone,

Here at AVAIL we do have a texting helpline that is advertised with our STOP ABUSE stop signs and we hang these up all over town, in schools, in churches, etc. Our txt line number is 715-219-4609

Hi Erica,

I wasn't sure if you actually had all the info about the new DAIS texting hotline so I've attached the flyer.  Also, if you have any questions, please contact Sarah Utley Wells our Help Line Coordinator.

Thanks,
Karen

Hi everyone,

I'm assembling a directory of dating abuse texting helplines operating in the state for teens to use. If your program has one, or if you know of any, please let me know! Be sure to include how to access the line (i.e., Can I just text a phone number? Or do I text something like "Help" to the number?) and when the line is in use (i.e., If I text it, will I get a reply 24/7? Or 9-5 Mon-Fri?)

So far I know of one at DAIS (brand new!), one at Advocates of Ozaukee, and I have heard unconfirmed rumors of one at the Milwaukee LGBT Community Center. (Is there someone on this list from the LGBT CC that can confirm or deny those rumors?)

I'm including national ones as well; I've got a few but if you want to share one with me feel free!

Thank you,

Erica
