For more than 24 years, the Assaulted Women's Helpline has provided a toll-free and TTY (for the deaf and hard of hearing) telephone crisis line to all women in Ontario who are living with abuse. This life-saving service allows women to reach out for help, free of charge, in up to 154 languages, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, assured of their anonymity and confidentiality. We are currently the only organization in Ontario to offer our level of service to women living with abuse.

Due to lack of funding, as many as 50% of the women who call the line during peak periods cannot get through to speak to a counsellor. This means that thousands of women hear a busy signal when they need to hear the voice of one of our crisis line counsellors.

As one of our most important fundraisers of the year, please consider joining Team Assaulted Women's Helpline and help us raise awareness and the critical funds needed to make sure no call goes unanswered.

Registration is now closed.
