Mission Statement:
The Abuse Victim Hotline, Inc.'s (AVH) vision, leadership, and action empower people to advance their roles, rights and well-being.
AVH provides support services to survivors of domestic and sexual violence. We serve people without regard to age, gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, color or ability. We educate and inform children, youth and the community at large to prevent and eliminate the causes of domestic and sexual violence.
Our services are confidential and provided free of charge.
Description:
The Abuse Victim Hotline, Inc. offers preliminary support to victims of abuse via our toll-free hotline and confidential email service.
If our volunteers cannot help a victim or friend/loved one of a victim directly, we will do our best to point them in the right direction.
Philosophy:
The Abuse Victim Hotline, Inc. embraces the belief that all individuals should have equal access to political, legal, economic, and social rights. We strive to create a community that embraces diversity, recognizes oppression, promotes empowerment, and supports the right of all individuals to self - determination. We eagerly work for the day when violence against men, women and children is part of history rather than a part of our daily lives.
Diversity Statement:
The Abuse Victim Hotline, Inc. welcomes, respects, and values diversity. We believe that as an organization that supports inclusion, we utilize the unique talents of all people to the greatest extent. This leads to increased job satisfaction and the highest quality of service. By integrating and appreciating diversity, we support our mission to create a safer community and a better world.
