Press Releases

Each time a domestic violence story is covered, media has an opportunity to help save lives.

StrongHearts Native Helpline (1-844-7NATIVE) is a culturally-appropriate, anonymous, confidential service dedicated to serving Native American and Alaska Native survivors of domestic and sexual violence that the media can share with viewers, listeners and readers as a critical resource.

We hope the media will help us raise the voices of Native Americans impacted by domestic, dating and sexual violence in tribal communities as a way of shedding light on the devastating fact that millions of Native people in this country are directly experiencing abuse and threats of violence in their intimate relationships. When reporting on the issue, we ask the media to take into careful consideration the safety of these victims.

For inquiries, please send an email to media@strongheartshelpline.org.
