GET HELP

If you or someone you know is currently in immediate danger, call 911.
The Maine 24/7 confidential helpline is 1-866-834-4357.

We understand IT and we believe YOU.

Finding Our Voices is a loving, non-judgmental community of Maine women survivors, who are taking back our power and shining a light for our sisters still in the dark. We gather for online support groups, healing retreats, panel discussions, getting our posters up through towns, and public rallies educating the public about what WE want them to know about domestic abuse.

We are NOT housing navigators or legal advocates. If you need either of these services, please contact your local domestic violence agency to see how they can help.

Maine’s Domestic Abuse Agencies

There are domestic abuse agencies in every county in Maine under the umbrella Maine Coalition To End Domestic Violence.
