A safe place to find fast, effective support

Our goal is to empower you and help build confidence while we create a plan that works best for you. Here’s how it works:

call & connect

Our support starts with just one call to our compassionate and knowledgeable staff.

Share without judgement

We’ll understand your needs and goals, share how our partner agencies can help, and make appointments for you to get the services you need. Often this can often happen in one day, at our secure office location, virtually, or over the phone.

Make a Plan, Together

We’ll help you with safety planning, system navigation, and act as your care coordinator so that you can easily receive service with multiple community organizations to best support your needs.

what clients say

“With so many variables in my situation (housing, returning to work, daycare options, safety considerations) it was amazing to have one place to get answers / suggestions for all the issues.”

Experiencing gender-based violence can be isolating. Taking the first step to change can feel overwhelming. But you can get help, find hope and understand your options - easily and safely.

What our partners say

“Safety Network Durham allows women who would otherwise be unable to receive support, to plan for their safety and the safety of their children in one place, often in one day. A monetary value cannot be placed upon the chance to have a life of freedom and safety from violence.”
