Hope for a soft place to land

The Durham Crisis Response Center has provided shelter and support services to survivors of domestic, sexual, and family violence and human trafficking for over four decades. These supportive services include access to our 24-hour a day, confidential and free help line, legal advocacy, hospital accompaniment, counseling and support groups, and shelter.

We are reaching out to our community with a heartfelt plea. The ongoing budget cuts to non-profit organizations, especially domestic violence and sexual assault agencies, are being felt like never before. This year, our government funding has been cut by over 50% and the survivors we serve are also under heightened economic strain.

Your support is critical at this time.
