I AM A VICTIM
My husband is physically abusive and I need a safe place to stay. I’ve been sexually assaulted by a coworker. I’m a teen whose in an uncomfortable situation. I’ve been raped and I don’t know what to do. I need help placing a restraining order. I am an immigrant that needs legal protection. I have documents in English that I need help understanding. I’m queer and I’m a victim of a hate crime.
I AM A FAMILY MEMBER
I suspect my child has been violated and I don’t know where to turn. My daughter is in an abusive relationship. My family lives in fear of deportation and we need help with legal concerns. My daughter may have been date raped. My elderly parent is a victim of a crime. My gay son is being bullied. My son’s friend doesn’t seem to have a home and may be in trouble. My niece is being stalked.
I AM A COMMUNITY RESOURCE
I work in the schools and I’m interested in learning more about your awareness programs for young adults. I am a nurse and would like to learn more about joining your SANE and SART teams. I work for a local human service agency and I want to learn more about referrals and information. I am a lawyer and would like to donate my services. I’m a local counselor, how can I help?

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Community
The pandemic hasn’t been easy for a large portion of our community. Know that you are not alone, and there are people available and willing to help.
OHA compiled a list of several mental health resources available in our community for those seeking help. Due to an increase in sexual assault and domestic violence cases in our community, we have also linked our services for both below. Please reach out to our team if you need support.
