Domestic Violence Heightened Concerns:

The ongoing stay-at-home directive is having a devastating effect on domestic violence (DV) victims. It is also creating a potentially unsafe breeding environment for new DV cases, highlighted recently in this Los Angeles Time article. Please help spread these DV hotline numbers widely:

• Rainbow Services Hotline #: 310-547-9343
• Center for the Pacific Asian Family Hotline #: 800-339-3940
• 1736 Family Crisis Center Hotline #: 213-745-6434
• LA County DPH DV Council and County DV Hotline: 1-800-978-3600.
• Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles: Its courthouse-based domestic violence clinics (Downtown LA, Long Beach, Santa Monica) are providing assistance with restraining orders on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1-3 p.m. Call 800-399-4529 extension 8097 for help.
