Assaulted Women’s Helpline

Assaulted Women’s Helpline provides a safe space, free of judgment 24/7, to support, listen and guide women who have experienced any type of abuse anywhere in Ontario. They provide free, confidential, and anonymous crisis counselling, emotional support, information, and referrals via telephone in up to 200+ languages.

In 2020 as a result of the COVID pandemic and explosive demand for AWHL’s service, GROW contributed funding to allow the organization to hire an additional database coordinator to ensure accurate information was able to be provided to women seeking counselling and referrals. (Ontario)
